Development History
April 2011: External inspection finds this small, but attractive, watchhouse now suffering from structural problems caused by the effects of eroded foundations causing a structural crack, and the effects of dampness caused by very extensive ivy growth.
3 December 2014: External inspection finds the ivy has been removed. There are broken panes in the window.
