House is depicted on the 1840s Tithe Map, with adjoining structure (outbuilding?) to the west. Plot 968; noted only as 'garden' on the apportionment details.
Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.
Largely unchanged since the Tithe Map depiction, although the building to the west is shown as separate at this time; possible replacement building?
Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.
Early 20th century map shows the western building adjoining again; some potential alteration?
