Description

Early C20 century detached building prominently situated at the junction of Lee Road, North End
Road and Townsend. The building marks the south-western extremity of the built village and is
therefore important as a visual landmark. Set back slightly from the road behind a high hedge, the
building is constructed of brick and sits beneath a full hipped roof laid in slate with prominent
chimney stacks to each gable. The building is two storeys in height and symmetrical in its layout
with two storey windows bays arranged to either side of a central doorway. Despite alterations, this
building maintains much of its original character and form and is significant due to its location and
also because it forms part of a group of buildings from the early C20 century that marked the final
flowering of development within the village following the significant changes that occurred during
the mid to late C19th. Local Heritage Asset in conservatino area (1).
