Description

Late nineteenth century estate cottage built in about 1879 in Old English style 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).
