Description
This building was the subject of a television house history programme which researched the building's fabric and documentary evidence. Former barn, possibly with C17 origins, later extended and used as a coach house/stables for Orchehill House. The 1912 plans were for the conversion into a private house in a Tudor style. The programme concluded that materials, particularly internal panelling, were reused from Orchehill House. A most unusual house with strong character which has been eroded by replacement uPVC window frames. Programme website reference in Sources. Designed in 1912 by P Hopkins. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Gerrards Cross Centenary. (B1).
