House. 1923 for Sir James Morton, by Sir Robert Lorimer (builder Laings) with later extensions. Painted wet-dashed walls on brick plinth. Main house has a hipped clay tiled roof with swept eaves; mid brick chimney stacks; the wing has a flat roof on 2 levels hidden by a solid parapet. Main house is 2 storeys, 4 bays with a lower single-storey wing of 2 bays in a rough L-shape. Built on corner of St James Road and Empire Road. Casement glazed door at internal angle of `L', facing St James Road, with casement to right and 2 above; wing has small "porthole" and large 5-light window subdivided vertically by segment-headed arcade. Symmetrical elevation to Empire Road has 2 full-height, recessed, canted bays with hung tiles between floors; similar bay to rear. Windows (except wing) small-paned casements. INTERIOR not seen, but well documented: cherrywood panelling to entrance hall and reception room; similar panelling to first floor room which has inglenook fireplace (incorporating cupboards and shelves) and coved plaster ceiling with ornate bird and animal decoration. Oak staircase is decoratively carved in the Voysey manner. Its name comes from the use of the house between Tuesday and Thursday, the owner going home at weekends - see J Morton (1971) and Christopher Hussey (1931).
