St John’s House is a substantial double fronted Gothic building which was built by the Bedford Estate between 1861 and 1867 and was occupied between 1866 and 1879 by Gilson Martin, steward to the Bedford estate office. After 1879 the house was let privately. The gardens contain large mature trees and stone boundary walls also feature. St John’s House should be added to the Conservation Area as it is a 19th century building of great merit.
