Description

The Former Bakehouse is a small, square, one-storey building located at the south-west of the garden at 774 Station Road. It features brickwork that matches the surrounding structures and has a hipped tile roof with shaped wooden eaves. The building has a single small 2-light window at the front, and it is believed to have originally served as the hospital bakehouse.
