Description
The house, Bay Trees at the north of the conservation area is nearly hidden from view by trees. It is an attractive three gabled, whitewashed building of brick under a slate roof with wooden casement windows. Parts of the building are reputed to be 200 to 300 years old. There is some timber framing and unworked timber in the roof and sections of chalk and flint remain in the west gable. The house has 19th and 20th century extensions. It is thought that the house was once two separate cottages which were converted to a single dwelling in the early part of the 20th century. A significant building within the Conservation Area of Ellesborough (B1).
