Statement of Interest

B group.

Dunning Village is still relatively unspoilt. Few of the

houses have architectural value beyond pleasing vernacular

proportions and due to the softness of the local stone

necessitating much retooling and renewal. They are difficult

to date but most seem basically of late 18th and early 19th

century date. Maintenance has in places been neglected and a

few houses have unsuitable modern finishes, but thanks to the interesting and picturesque layout of the village and the

dominating central position of the Romanesque church the

village has considerable group value.
