Watson Fothergill's 1 and 3 Sherwood Rise
The nearer of this grand semi-detached pair, on the corner of Third Avenue, is known as the Turret House. Fothergill's distinctive style - dark wood contrasting with Nottingham Patent Brick, tall chimneys, pointy towers and dormers with spiky finials - is at its more restrained here. The pair date from 1894. Fothergill's Image] is a little further up Sherwood Rise, on the corner of Berridge Road.
