Numbers 12 and 14 Eastcourt were once two cottages, now one house. Built, gable end to the street, in the late 17th century of rendered stone under a thatch roof. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1194382 Burbage is a village in the Vale of Pewsey, Wiltshire, it lies about 5½ miles southeast of Marlborough and some 15½ miles west of Newbury. The narrow village High Street was the main north to south road from Marlborough to Andover (A346) until a bypass was built to the west in 1991. Settlement can be traced back to the Neolithic period, and Bronze Age artefacts have been found. Burbage is now essentially a commuter village.
