Title
Woodcote House in Wrythe Green Road
Description
Front elevation of Woodcote House (formerly Bedford Cottage) in Wrythe Green Road, Carshalton, an early nineteenth-century detached house. The house is faced with tongued and grooved boarding in a fixed herringbone fashion. The building had an eighteenth-century wrought-iron weather vane which is now in the keeping of the Victoria and Albert Museum. It is claimed that this was a toll house on the London to Sutton turnpike at Rose Hill and was later moved on rollers to its present site. The building is Grade II* listed, listing number 1184153 and is within the Wrythe Green Conservation Area. The Carshalton Society waged a successful campaign for ten years from 1965 to save the building from demolition. In this photograph a small van is parked in the front yard. A neighbouring shop with a Bird’s Eye sticker in the window is partly visible with a man walking towards it.
