HER Number:MDV114766
Name:Oaten Hills, Lydford

Summary

This house is typical of the few, smaller, 3-window fronted houses built in Lydford in the 19th century, having rendered elevations (which were probably not painted at first), grey-blue slated roofs and multi-paned timber sashes. While having a door to enclose it, the gabled porch is nevertheless a well-proportioned example of the local form.
