Type and Period (1)

  • HOUSE (18th Century to 19th Century - 1700 AD? to 1899 AD?)

Description

Late C18 or C19 house, brick with slate roof. 3 bays. Partial rubblestone wall to roadside elevation,
possibly indicating some earlier structure. Ridgeline chimneys at the northern gable end of the building, and between the left and central bay of the main house, articulate the roof slope. The
building has been much extended to the rear, and has had replacement windows, but still retains much of its historic character. A small projecting porch has been added to the principal façade. The brick boundary wall to this property is of historic interest. Both the house and boundary wall are important in views along High Street as they form part of the continuous building line on the south side of the street. A local note building within the Conservation Area of Great Horwood (B1).
