SU 56 SE BAUGHURST BRIMPTON ROAD 4/7

Newbies, and West Newbies

II

1902, by Ernest Newton. Arts and Crafts design, with balanced-assymmetrical treatment. The north (entrance) front has a coupled-gabled slightly projecting east wing and a single-gabled west wing of much greater projection. Tiled roofing, roughcast walls with cambered ground floor openings, leaded (mainly 3-light) casements, and an off-centre porch with a semi-circular copper roof and wood trellis framework. The south (garden) elevation has a regular range of 6-gabled ½-dormers, with a slightly projecting gabled east wing; with similar features there is a french door at the 1st bay and a ½-glazed door at the 4th, with a gabled trellis porch. The chimneys dominate the building, being of red brickwork, tall with tile cappings on thickened crowns, above brick dentils. There is a lower 2-storeyed and hipped roofed service block at the west end. The house is now 2 dwellings (Newbies and West Newbies), with an unobtrusive dividing wood fence (south) and hedge (north side).
