Full description

South West Heritage Trust, 1838-1848, Digitised Tithe Maps and Transcribed Apportionments (Cartographic). SDV359954.

Early to mid-19th century Tithe Map shows this building is one of a group just to the west of the main buildings forming the Great Warmhill Estate. Apportionment records record this plot (531) as 'Higher Court and Buildings'. This building is the north-western part of a pair joined at a roughly 45 degree angle. Map object partly based on this source.


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

Late 19th century map shows the building has been altered; only this northern part remains now.


Ordnance Survey, 1904 - 1906, Second Edition Ordnance Survey 25 inch Map (Cartographic). SDV325644.

Unchanged from the late 19th century historic map depiction.


Ordnance Survey, 2017, MasterMap (Cartographic). SDV359962.

The modern map shows Little Timbers which has clearly been converted into a dwelling. There is now another modern dwelling overlying the area of the original building.
