House & Garden 
The entrance is pronounced by yellow sandstone columns 
supporting a heavy lintel, with a broad window above. The 
turn-around serves both the front door and the kitchen 
wing, the gate at the left leading to the kitchen gardens, 
with part of the grounds separated from the forecourt by a 
high brick wall. The rough sandstone cornice and columns 
relieve the color of the brick walls 
A terrace runs along the 
front of the house and 
commands the slope of 
the grounds down to the 
road. This meadow is 
left in its natural state. 
The entrance to the ter¬ 
race is a little loggia with 
a narrow bit of roof and 
an interesting wrought 
iron balcony above

hillside it required rather a large roof and chimneys. This
