Full description

'The Shanty' is shown on the early 20th century historic map, along with fountain to the east, as well as two other smaller rectangular structures bordering this plot on the west and in the north-eastern corner. Not shown on the late 19th century historic map.
Building appears to be a dwelling and is a rectangular structure (aligned roughly east-west), set on the northern border of the plot, on the edge of an irregular court area defined on the map as a dashed line. A small section subdivided at the western end and an additional square structure sits adjacent to the west.
A curving path leads south-south-west into the plot to the ?house and a raised rectangular area within woodland at SX 69626971 measuring approximately 35m by 20m.
