Building record 1519600000 - Lane End, Meadle

John Nash (1903-1977) the war artist and younger brother of the painter Paul Nash lived at the house named Lane End from 1922 to 1944 and painted many views in and around Meadle village. Lane End was part of the Duke of Buckingham’s estate until 1874. The house is unlisted but significant to the conservation area. Thought to date from the early 19th century this pretty house is colour-washed brick under a tiled roof. On the way to Lane End there are delightful views across the fields to the east to the groups of listed farm houses and north-west across the Vale of Aylesbury. Views from the end of the lane looking north and east are across the open countryside. A significant building within the conservation area of Meadle (B1).
