Description
Large house. c1879. Red Brick, red tile roof with three courses of shaped blue tiles. Relatively plain
symmetrical façade with large flanking gables, half-timbered and pebble dashed. Central porch with hipped roof. Smaller gables over first floor windows in central block flanked by big gables (minimal projection) with 2 storey splayed window bays under hipped red tile roofs. Must have been built for a significant resident. Relatively plain chimneys above gables. 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).
