This print is on the same card as OP28791. A L-shaped building, the house was built c.1735 for Robert Bouchier, Fellow of Worcester College, Oxford. It comprises a large room, called in 1783 a dining room, which rises almost the full height of the house, two smaller rooms on the ground floor and two on the first floor, all with their original panelling. The house has no connection with any manor and its name, first recorded c. 1930, may have been given to it by the historian Henry Minn who occupied the house from that date.
This photograph was withdrawn from the open Red Box Collection for conservation reasons during the 2011-2012 Red Box Project.
On the reverse of the print it states that it was received by the NBR on the 25th July 1950.
