Wood End

Wood End is a house built in 1897 by Sir Edwin Lutyens. It features Bargate stone at the base, with brick dressings and colourwashed roughcast above, topped with gabled plain tiled roofs. The building has a T-shaped plan and is situated on a corner site, with two storeys. A massive multiple stack rises from an offset plinth with diagonal shafts in the re-entrant angle at the front.

On the left gable end, there is a jettied first floor with a 4-light leaded casement window, while the ground floor window wraps around the corner. The right gable end has a two-light first floor window, a single first floor window to the right of the gable, and another window wrapping around the corner on a pentice roofed extension. The central door is located in the re-entrant angle behind a porch recess.

The rear has large ranges with ridge stacks, wood framed casement windows, and a square, gabled bay facing the street. The interior is split level. The garden was originally designed by Gertrude Jekyll.
