Architectural and Artistic Interest

Three bay detached house in “stockbroker Tudor” style. Plans by Simmons & Coward, architects of London, were approved in 1931. A Mr Coward is shown living in Dargle in the 1929 street directory and it seems likely that he had this house built in 1931 and transferred the name from the house which is now number 11, The Bolt. Ground floor in red brick – some herringbone patterns – with upper storey rendered and painted white with applied black half-timbering. The front door is set back behind a porch with timber posts with the upper-storey oversailing the porch. The gable over the entrance with the hipped wing to the west forms a carefully designed picturesque composition. Interesting plaster medallions on the front. Two storey side extension.
