Description

Formerly called Fircroft. Troup was a well-known Arts and Crafts architect who designed the Art Workers Guild extension. Plans for alterations in 1926. Not a typical Arts and Crafts house. Plain appearance. Rendered walls with, unusually for Gerrards Cross, a Westmorland slate roof. however such slate roofs were fashionable with architects such as Voysey. Porch has wrought iron posts. Prominent lateral chimney stack. Included in this table because it represents the work of a leading architect although the replacement windows have compromised the historic character. This house backs onto Latchmoor Pond and closes the view southwards out of Layters Ways and thus is in a sensitive location. Designed in 1908 by F W Troup. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Gerrards Cross Centenary. (B1).
