Description
CIRENCESTER
SP0103 CHELTENHAM ROAD, Stratton 578-1/2/376 (West side) 23/07/71 No.91
II
Former Toll house, now house. Early C19, re-erected l880's. Coursed squared limestone; stone slate roof; ashlar stacks on gablets to left and right sides. Building is of rectangular plan with 3-sided canted full-width bay to front. 2-storey 3-window range. 3 pointed windows to first floor with Y-tracery and C20 leaded lights, one in each face of bay. 3 similar windows to ground floor. Pointed 6-panel door under C20 gabled hood with artificial stone slates to left side. Quoins to all front and rear angles. C19 wrought-iron weathervane on apex of roof at front. C20 single-storey flat-roofed extension to right. INTERIOR not inspected. This building originally stood on the Gloucester Road adjacent to Stratton Firs (qv) and probably pre-dates the opening of the Cheltenham turnpike in 1827. A photograph of it in this position shows a door at centre front with no window above it, no weathervane and no stack to right. The materials were sold in 1879 when the turnpike system was abandoned and re-erected here in the l880's.
