II
Large house dated 1931 on rainwater heads, by Norman Jewson for I. Naylor. Random roughly squared limestone; ashlar stacks; stone slate roof. 'L'-shaped plan; 'E' to garden. Two storeys and attic. Entrance (east) front: central 2-storey gabled porch, further gabled projection far right. Two, 3 and 4-light stone- mullioned casements mostly with moulded hoods; stone-mullioned cross window lighting the service stairs immediately left of the projecting gable. Plank door within a flat-chamfered flattened Tudor arched surround with a deep dressed stone lintel and a moulded hood; ventilation slit to the porch gable. Almost symmetrical south (garden) front with gables projecting forwards far left and far right; central flat-roofed canted bay; mostly 2 and 4-light stone-mullioned casements with transoms to the ground floor; 2 and 4-light stone-mullioned casements to the first floor; single-light windows with moulded hoods to each gable. All casements with leaded panes. Axial stacks. Interior: staircase with a square-framed balustrade and moulded handrail (typical of Jewson's interior work). Drawing room: high open-beamed ceiling; bolection-moulded fireplace; two 6-panel doors, with brass fixtures (reputed to come from Leeds Castle). Dining room: angled corner fireplace with fireback initialled 'I.N.'. Service stair appears to be based on a Voysey design with floor to ceiling stick balusters. Design of house probably influenced by Rodmarton Manor (q.v. Rodmarton C.P.). (N.M. Herbert, 'Rendcomb' in V.C.H. Glos. Vol VII, p 218-227; and D. Verey, The Buildings of England: The Cotswolds, 1979; and M. Hill notes for forthcoming book n.d.)
