Notes from Monken Hadley Conservation Area Character Appraisal Statement edit

"The Old Cottage, Hadley Green Road - Grade II 18th century front on a probably 17th century range which continues as part of Hadley Cote. The front of this modest twostorey Georgian dwelling is stucco-rendered. There are four windows, with sashes and glazing bars. Panelled door with a plain doorcase. The property has a tiled roof with a massive brick central stack. Internally, much of the house has large-panelled walls, which originally came from the cabin of a ship commanded by Admiral Byng, of Wrotham Park. "

"The Old Cottage was once owned by Thackeray’s mother, for whom the novelist is said to have purchased the property after the death of her second husband. Hadley Cote, Hadley Green Road - Grade II Late 18th century cottage which was very altered in the 20th century. Rendered. Two storeys, two windows with modern tripartite sashes. There is a central panelled door with plain surround and blank window over. Slate roof. Behind is an older parallel range of probably 17th century, which is part of the same building as The Old Cottage. Hadley Cote is included for this range, and for the group value of the front section." https://www.barnet.gov.uk/sites/default/files/assets/citizenportal/documents/common/planningmonkenhadleyconservationareaappraisal.pdf Pike2019 (talk) 08:49, 5 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
