SP 5301 SANDFORD-ON-THAMES 10/112 Temple Farmhouse, doorway and 18/07/63 wall approx 40 metres north (Formerly listed as ... at Temple Farm).
GV II
Doorway and wall. Doorway dated 1614. Limestone rubble and ashlar. Wall approx. 40 metres long, running east-west. Doorway has 4-centre moulded arch with carved spandrels and is flanked by several pieces of medieval carved stone re-used as walling material. The walling above the arch is now thick with ivy but earlier descriptions agree with photographs of 1902 showing a segmental pediment bearing the date 1614. Earlier view (1823) shows the gateway in a different position facing away from the house with the pediment at a higher level. V.C.H. Oxfordshire V, p.268; Buildings of England, Oxfordshire, p.750: National Monuments Record.)
