Statement of Interest

Part of the former Humbie Children's Village built in 1906 in Arts and Crafts style. The village was built to provide holiday accommodation for children with disabilities and was made up of separate cottages with a hall and school. It became a residential care facility in the later 20th century before closing in the 1990s and being redeveloped into private housing in 2008.
