Statement of Interest

With its buttressed angles, small-pane timber casement glazing, overhanging eaves and recessed entrance, the detailing of this house bears comparison with the work of Charles Voysey. The adjacent St Ninian's Episcopal Church, for which it became a rectory in 1922, was designed by James Archibald Morris between 1912-13 (see separate list entry).
