Full Description

A hothouse with a u-shaped plan can be seen in late 19th century Ordenance Survey maps. Trial trenching has confirmed the existence of brick walls and a brick surface in the location of the hothouse. The hothouse can no longer be seen in a 1946 map, but can be seen in a 1905 map. The hothouse must have been demolished at some point between 1905 and 1946. {1}{2}{3}{4}
