Description

J C Richards was the promoter of the Latchmoor Estate. This house was probably designed by Leonard Kerkham. Formerly called Glendalough. Plans for a new motor house approved in 1909. The site is relatively narrow, hence the depth of the house but this is kept interesting by the use of gables. These are half-timbered; pebbledash with porch formed by jettied first floor. Brackets to eaves of gable. Windows appear original. Gravel drive and hedge to front. Good example of garden village property. Designed in 1908 by J C Richards. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Gerrards Cross Centenary. (B1).
