Full Description
Site of former Kirby Cane estate keeper's cottage.
November 2013. Historic Building Recording.
A basic record was made of The Old Keeper's Cottage, ahead of its proposed demolition.
The building is believed to date from the mid 19th century with a series of later alterations and a replacement roof. It was of brick and pantile with replacement Crittal type windows in altered window openings. It suffered subsidence and damp problems in the 20th century and in 1966 a new dwelling was constructed on the west side of Wash Lane. From this date the cottage was unoccupied but still used in association with game shooting activities.
