Department for Culture, Media and Sport, 2010, Wrinklehorn and Castle House, Totnes (List of Blds of Arch or Historic Interest). SDV344320.

Wrinklehorn (formerly known as Mount Dart). A modest early 19th century villa, which appears on the Ordnance Survey maps of 1889, 1905 and 1932.

Rendered walls with slate hung first floor. Hipped Welsh slate roof with rendered brick end stacks. The fenestration appears to date from the 19th century. A good example of an architecturally distinguished house of this period, with significant original details: cast-iron verandahs, Chinese-style Gothic glazing. The villa makes a strong contribution to the character of Bridgetown and provides evidence for the historical development of Totnes.
