Description
Nineteenth century house in Ladysmith Road
19th century brick building positioned gable onto Ladysmith Road. The building is set into rising ground and is accessed via steep steps and driveway. The building is two storeys and sits beneath a shallow pitched hipped roof laid in slate with a central chimney stack. The gable elevation facing onto the road is blank. Irregularly positioned window openings to drive elevation. Brick wall topped by a thick hedge running along the road boundary hides the rear elevation from public view. This building features prominently in views looking northwards along Ladysmith Road. Its high blank gable elevation and adjacent brick boundary wall provide a hard edge to the street. Although the building has been altered with the loss of original windows and door, the basic outline, form and massing of the building remain. The building is significant because it maintains much of its original character and forms part of a group of 19th century buildings that represent a period of development and change within the village. A local note building within the conservation area of Ivinghoe (B1).
