Little Estcotts, in Firs Green Lane, is a house of many periods. Originally built in 1675 with extensions in circa the mid 18th century and circa the early 19th century. Further additions were made circa 1966 and circa 1980. Constructed of brick under a thatch roof. The property was a bakery and shop in the 19th century. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1364600 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.
