Edward VII wall box, Dovecote
Unusually this example simply carries the letters E R without the VII. This suggests that it could be a very early example, based on the simple substitution of E for V on a pattern from the previous reign. Box ref DE74 185.

Former Methodist Sunday School
Mapped as 'Chapel warehouse', this was never a chapel. The Methodist congregation took over a former silk milk - the cross wing at the rear - and added this Gothic-style building in 1872 to form a Sunday School.
