Looking west-northwest across Wat Tyler Way
Towards Lenworth House, which was built around 1820. It is a large, three storey, detached house, built of yellow stock brick, with the roof hidden behind a parapet. There are two, full height, window bays (one rounded, one canted) facing east towards the former garden (now occupied by Wat Tyler Way). The King Street elevation was refaced in red brick and the openings altered and a two storey, red brick fore-building added in the later 19th century – these alterations have adversely affected the street frontage, whereas east and south elevations remain in an original attractive form. There is a two storey, late 19th century addition in yellow stock brick with a slate roof to the west side Link (Archive Link ) (scroll down to page 12 to see the original text in the link)
