Building record 1535200000 - Pear Tree House, 16 Little Horwood Road

C19, small symmetrically fronted house. Painted brick with slate roof and gable end ridgeline stacks. 2 storey. 6 over 6 sash pane sash windows to ground and first floor either side of central door at ground floor level and central, narrower, 6 over 6 pane sash at first floor level. Door has decorative surround with projecting parapet porch. To the left hand side of the main house is a two storey extension with a garage at ground floor level and living accommodation over. The windows in this part of the building are relatively modern – trickle vents are present in each one – but they reflect the overall style and appearance of the windows elsewhere on the building. The building is set back behind a small front garden, lined by simple looped railings. These railings are of some architectural and historic interest and make a positive contribution to the street. The building is visually prominent and forms part of a group of important cluster of historic buildings on Little Horwood Road. A local note building within the Conservation Area of Great Horwood (B1).
