House at Reigate.

HOUSE AT REIGATE - The end of the road on which this house stands ends in a curved return with no outlet. The boundary of the site in front of the house has simply been defined with posts and chains, so that the public road, used only for access to the house, has all the appearance of being a private one. The curved line of site suggested a long house embracing the curved frontage as much as possible. The materials are grey stock brick and red dressings with wood windows and brown tile roof. Advantage has been taken of the fall in the ground to get a room opening on to the garden and a good terrace at the back finished with a wall screening a wood shed and securing privacy from the next house. Mr. P. Morley Horder, FRIBA, of London, W. was the architect. [Recent English Domestic Architecture 1911 page 130-131]
