National Trust owned house on The Street. Grade II listed http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1273935

A row of flint walled cottages located at the northern end of the loop found at the eastern end of the village street. Charnes Cottage is visible beyond.

Weather-boarded buildings ranged along the west side of the village street. The property was once - according to the National Trust notice-board - the home of Virginia Woolf and her husband Leonard. From the churchyard I could see into the garden - immaculately prim. Was it really that neat in the days of the Bloomsbury Group? The photo was one of the last I took on this October afternoon, with the sky clouding over and rain threatening.

Grade II listed.

Built in the 18th century, the house is faced with weatherboarding on a stuccoed base under a slate roof. There is an extension on the left. The house is in the care of the National Trust.
