Appraisal
Originally built and owned by Mr. Hurst, this large scale house, with its bays and gablets, is typical of architectural fashion at the turn of the century. It has been altered and extended to accommodate its new use, while still retaining many of its original features, including timber sash windows, the original door and some interior fittings.
