Appraisal
This elegant, nineteenth-century house is attractively situated in landscaped surrounds and retains a number of original features including its timber panelled door. The house is thought to have been built at the miller's house for the neighbouring corn mill. The plaque on the outbuilding is interesting, as it refers to Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.
