Full description

Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.

Late 19th century historic map shows a building that appears narrower and a more pronounced L-shape, although this may simply be down to the variations in early map depictions. Alternatively, the building may have been altered / extended since the Tithe Map depiction.
