Blue plaques on the large timber-framed house commemorate two previous owners, Nigel Balchin (1908-70), a once-popular novelist and screenwriter, and before him Laughlan Rose (1867-1949) of the lime juice family, who retired here from the family's estate in Dominica. The Grade II listed house dates from the 16th or 17th century. For more about the origin of Rose's Lime Juice, try http://www.leithlocalhistorysociety.org.uk/businesses/roses_lime_juice.htm .
