HISTORICAL NOTE: formerly called 'Caynham', it was the home in
1891 of Liet-Col C Berkeley Calcott.
The largest and grandest house on the south side of Lansdown
Road. Although considerably later in date than other
Cheltenham villas in the Classical tradition, this example is
particularly notable for its high quality of design and
detail, in particular for the unusually competent use of
masonry.
