Bungalow. 1872-73; by John Taylor, possibly on a plot of land bought by John Pollard
Seddon. Walls faced with stone within framework of lacing courses and quoins of
special bricks. One storey. Sash windows with horns and without glazing bars. Long
flank east elevation with five windows; at north end, four steps to gabled stone and
brick porch with side benches and pair of half-glazed two-panel doors. The south end
with wide gable with overhanging eaves on brackets; triangular headed sash window
above lean-to against ground floor, which has central half-glazed door, flanked each
side by one sash window and one small window. NW tower of brick and stone with
pyramidal roof.
Either the third, fourth or fifth bungalow to be built in the British Isles, at
either Westgate or Birchington-on-Sea, and one of the very few early examples still
extant. Taylor's bungalows incorporated his patented building materials and methods,
for instance to counteract rising damp.
