"Engineer's House - built 1890-1892 in the Domestic Revival manner by the architect G E Holman. The building is of two storeys, in red brick laid in English bond, with a tile-hung upper storey and tile roofs. The multiple gables have timber framing and the north-eastern elevation has three oriel windows on the first-floor. The south-west elevation has an arched entrance with banded stone decoration and a first-floor bay window with a buttressed support. The building retains its original casement windows with segmental rubbed brick lintels. The tall decorative brick chimneys have been truncated in most cases." - Extract from this http://www.leamarsh.com/history/EngHeritageMOL.html.
