This is my favourite of the old houses of Ash. The cross-wing on the right was an early 18C addition, dated 1717 in large figures in the brickwork (unfortunately hidden by the hedge in this view), and has an attractive sundial. The houses at the end of the drive on the left were converted from a barn in the 1950s, so it would seem that Azor Place was a farmhouse. Azor was the name of the Saxon holder of the manor in the Domesday Book.
