14, Fore Street

No 14, Fore Street is a house designed in 1909 by Sir Edwin Lutyens for the Duke of Bedford, and it is part of the planned village center of Milton Abbot. The building is constructed from local stone rubble and features a slate hipped roof that slopes down to stone corbelled eaves courses, which are interrupted by hipped half-dormers. There are short stone ridge stacks at both ends of the roof. The house is two storeys high and showcases a picturesque Arts and vernacular revival style.

The symmetrical front has five bays, with a central front door that is sheltered by a horizontal canopy supported on timber brackets. The ground floor windows on either side of the door are canted bays fitted with casement windows that have glazing bars. Flanking the front door are two 1-light windows, each with two panes. On the first floor, there are three half-dormers with hipped roofs, which contain casement windows; the outer windows are three-light, while the central window has deep reveals and is also a casement window with two panes. The interior has not been inspected.
