What is recorded here
Detached double-pile house, built c.1920. Pitched corrugated roofs with yellow brick chimneystack. No further detail available due to overgrowth.
A rare corrugated-iron domestic building, which is a type that is becoming increasingly rare throughout the country. Set adjacent to the former railway line, this sadly neglected building may once have been associated with the railway. Corrugated-iron was often used by railway companies, which were swift to recognise the rapid and inexpensive constructional possibilities offered by mass produced materials. Though now over grown, it would appear to retain much of its historic fabric intact.
