Cookham Dene and The Lodge, Manor Park

Cookham Dene (the large house in the background) and its lodge (in the foreground) date from 1882 and were designed by Sir Aston Webb for his brother Edward Alfred Webb, a local historian. The main house is grade II listed - for listing particulars see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1064397, with The Lodge similarly designated as a curtilage to the main building. The post box, perhaps unsurprisingly given when the original houses in this road were built, is Victorian.
