Description

The first edition 6" OS map shows the 1864 house with gardens (formal?) including what appears to be a walled (kitchen?) garden and parkland. The 1988 AP shows that the 19th century features are largely intact. The park is now partly occupied by playing fields. Age and importance of garden are unclear. (B1)
