House. 1877, by Edward Swinfen Harris, for F J Taylor, mineral water and mustard manufacturer. Domestic Revival style. Red brick, English bond, with some limestone dressings and some timberframed upper floors with brick noggings and gables with plaster infill impressed with sunflower designs. Tiled roofs. Two storeys and attics. Entrance on north to reception/stair hall, with reception rooms on south and service wing on left beyond service stair in tower. Front elevation has brick and stone gothic porch with stone strings and hood, and inner order on carved stone capitals. Recessed glazed timber door. First floor has timberframed bay, and simple sash windows under near-flush pointed brick arches in manner of Butterfield. Gabled dormers. Stair tower rises from multiple chamfered brick offset courses, and is octagonal with decorative brick panels, returning to circular before multiple outsetting courses below eaves. Conical slate tower with decorative ironwork. Rear elevation has stone mullioned and dressed windows, and two gables, one framed, the other tile hung. Interior has staircase with carved newels and turned balusters and similar turned baluster gallery overlooking hall from first floor. Some original fireplaces. Various window box-seats. Panelled doors. Gilded timber cornice in dining room and panelled ceiling on carved wall posts and corbels. Fine stained and painted glass, especially in dining room, where four panels representing the Seasons are possibly by N Westlake, a close associate of the architect. This house, for an eminent local man, is the 'chef d'oeuvre' of this significant Aesthetic Movement architect, based in Stony Stratford and London, who was a long-standing friend of E W Godwin, and known to Butterfield, Street and others.
