| Summary: | Sharlands House was built in 1912 on previously undeveloped land on the western edge of Braunton. The empty plot on the corner of Sharlands Lane and ‘Pixey Lane’ is shown on the Second Edition Ordnance Survey Map of 1904. Alterations to the house in the late C20/ early C21 include the conversion of the scullery and coal storage areas to other uses, a new access from the drawing room into a study and the rearrangement of the upstairs bathroom. The hayloft, or ‘tallet’, to the stable was converted to a bedroom in the C21 and the main doors replaced with a steel shutter. There have been modifications to the formal garden features including the pond and garden walling. The paddock was retained by the previous owner when the ownership of Sharlands House last changed hands in the early C21. |
