Description
Pair of semi-detached houses. Red brick and red tile. Symmetrical façade. Like small version of No. 29
Narrow recessed centre has porches under lean-to roof: above, small windows tucked under eaves. Gables project further than 29 and have 1F splay bay windows under hipped red tile roofs. Decorative half-timbering with pebbledash panels in gable. Main hipped roof continues above gable roofs with larger chimneys than No. 29.
No. 33 has original side extension with hipped roof, decorative half timbering with pebbledash panels at first floor over brick ground floor. 35 has a modern lean-to brick side extension. Garage to west with half-timbering in gable to match.
Retains C19 iron gate and fencing within hedge.
Significance: One of the elements of the mid-late C19 estate village, survives intact; part of the most
extensive group, late 1870s in Old English style, probably by Aspell, in good imitation of Devey, all in
various forms, none repeated.
Issues: Gate and fencing vulnerable to loss and damage. A local note building within the conservation area of Mentmore (B1).
