What is recorded here
Detached single-bay two-storey estate worker’s house, c. 1850, retaining original aspect. Pyramidal slate roof with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, and cast-iron rainwater goods on timber eaves. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with stone sills, 8/8 and 8/12 timber sash windows. Square-headed door opening with glazed timber panelled door. Set in grounds shared with Mount Congreve in walled garden.
An appealing small-scale house retaining its original form and most of its original fabric. Built as accommodation for an employee on the Mount Congreve estate, the house, together with the remainder of the ancillary structures in the grounds (including 22901714, 23 - 4, 26/WD-17-14, 23 - 4, 26), is of significance as a reminder of the various activities undertaken in the maintenance of a large-scale estate.
