  • HOUSE (19th Century - 1800 AD to 1899 AD)

Description

Early 19th century, brick with clay tile roof. Building sits gable end onto the street, abutting a narrow grass verge. The building is 2 storey, although the upper storey appears to have been added (the walls show signs of the roof having been raised) after its original construction. The ridgeline chimney on the roadside gable is visually prominent. A second chimney is located at the other end of the building, projecting from further down the roofline. Windows are casement opening leaded lights. The building is visually prominent, and reflects the scale, materials and vernacular character of other nearby historic buildings, with which it forms a group. A local note building within the Conservation Area of Great Horwood (B1).
