II
House. 1921. Built for Mr Rudman, Master of Eton College and a collector. Squared limestone rubble with freestone plinth, quoins and dressings, stone slate roof, hipped and swept at eaves and valleys, stone stacks to returns and front right wing. STYLE: Eclectic Vernacular Revival, incorporating collected architectural features. PLAN: L-shaped with brick 2-storey gabled central porch and rear service wing. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys; 3-window range plus a cross wing to the right. The porch has a stone sundial finial, a Venetian window to the front and a bull's-eye window to the left return of the 1st floor and an early C18 open pediment and moulded architrave to a C20 door. It is flanked by 4-light stone-mullioned windows to the 1st floor, a similar transomed window to the right of the ground floor and a 4-light timber-mullioned window to a canted bay with a hipped stone-slated roof to the left. The forward right wing has a large external stack to the front, off-set at each stage with 2 sundials at the 1st-floor level and paired diagonally-set square shafts. The right return has 4-light stone-mullioned windows to the right of both floors, a canted bay similar to that at the front and a ball finial to the roof. The left return has a square stack off-set at both stages flanked by single-light windows. The rear has a large hipped dormer to the centre and a smaller one to the right, 3-light stone-mullioned windows to the right of both floors and a flat-roofed 2-storey service wing to the rest. INTERIOR: many medieval and early C18 items are incorporated including an oak beam and a Tudor-arched fireplace to the central ground-floor room and full-height early C18 panelling to the room to the left. High-quality C20 work includes a cantilevered stone staircase, doors with wrought-iron hinges and catches and elm floorboards. The house is surrounded by formal gardens with clipped yew hedges. A remarkable composition of its type, recalling the contempory work of Blunden Shadbolt in the south-east using items salvaged from early buildings.
