A Swarland Settlement house
As far as I know there are only two of these houses with mansard roofs in Swarland. They date from the 1930's when the Swarland Settlement was built by the Vyner family of Fountains Hall near Ripon. The Vyner's philanthropic scheme saw the construction of dwellings of different sizes, each with a generous 1.5 acres of land, and with encouragement to be at least partly self sufficient. The incomers were unemployed workers from the industrial north east, and apart from the smallholdings there was also the prospect of work in a local brickworks, a sawmill and a weaving mill - all provided by the Vyner family. The scheme didn't last long as many of the inhabitants were tempted back to Tyneside etc to work in industry or the mines once the second world war began. Nowadays the large plots have been sold off and divided into individual house plots with a real mixture of housing from the 1970's to the present day. This is an interesting site, but it is best to walk around with a local person who knows what to look for.
