Description
Honeywood Museum, formerly known as Honeywood Lodge, is a building from the late 18th century that incorporates the core of an earlier cottage. The structure features chalk walling that extends up to the roof and has undergone extensive alterations in the late 19th century, particularly after the house to the south was demolished around 1883. A watercourse runs beneath the building.
The museum is two storeys tall and has dormers, with a rendered exterior and a tiled roof. It has a central entrance and a wide projection to the left that includes a two-storey bay window. The 19th-century modifications include a gabled wing to the north with an oriel window, a central porch adorned with carved bargeboards, a single-storey south wing, and a taller timber-framed block located behind.
The building is noted for its group value within the old village centre and was the home of John Burke from the 1780s until his death in 1805. Honeywood Museum and its wall are part of a group with several notable structures, including The Gate House, road bridge, Leoni bridge, culvert, and retaining walls to Carshalton Ponds, as well as No 1 High Street, the entrance gates to The Grove, Anne Boleyn's Well, St Mary's, Madeley Cottage in Church Hill, and various items on the south side of High Street, such as the Greyhound Inn, the wall to the east of the Greyhound, Church of All Saints, the north churchyard wall, and No 6 High Street.
