Description


KELMSCOTT
SU2499-25999, SU29NE
10/82, 5/82 Stonne-slab fence enclosing and
dividing gardens of Nos.1 and
4 Manor Cottages continuing to
SE along road to Garden Cot.
GV II

Stone-slab fence. Probably early C20. Vertical limestone slabs set close
together; tied together with iron clamps and backed by wooden rail to section
around Nos.1 and 4, Manor Cottages (q.v.) backed by iron railings to remainder.
Encloses and divides gardens of Nos.1 and 4 Manor Cottages and separates garden
of No.4 from field to east. Continues to south-east along road to Garden Cottage
(q.v.) , part of whose garden it separates from field to north. A short section
of similar fence (not included in this list) in front of Ernest Gimson's Village
Hall (q.v.) and its presence around Nos.1 and 4, Manor Cottages, also designed
by Gimson, suggest that it may have been installed at his direction. No other
such fences are found in the immediate vicinity. Forms an important part of the
village scene. Included for group value.
