Eden Brantwood Brochure Brantwood Newbiggin-on-Lune Brantwood Page 2! of 2! Brantwood is a charming three bedroom Victorian railway station house, complete with its own waiting room and platform. This is a rare opportunity to own a remarkable historic building on a beautiful one acre plot with exceptional views of the Howgill Fells. Key Features • Unique railway station house • Superb views • Detached with 3 bedrooms • South facing • Beautiful gardens around 1 acre • Home business potential • Waiting room and outbuildings • Excellent transport links Location Brantwood is located on the outskirts of the Cumbrian village of Newbiggin-on-Lune in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The Howgill Fells, Great Asby Scar and Smardale Viaduct are all close by, with the Lake District a short drive away. The nearby picturesque village of Ravenstonedale has award winning pubs, village store and nursery, with further amenities and schools in Kirkby Stephen. Newbiggin-on-lune has excellent transport links, with the M6 and A66 within easy reach and Settle-Carlisle railway station in Kirkby Stephen. Inside The property was originally the Ravenstonedale railway station, which closed in the 1960s. Much of the station’s charm and features still remain, with superb feature windows and high ceilings in most rooms. The former waiting room has an original fireplace, pew seating and glazed front wall with doors out onto the platform and magnificent views of the Howgill Fells. This space would make an exceptional sunroom or would be an ideal space for a tearoom, subject to planning consents. From the waiting room a beautiful arched doorway leads into the original women’s waiting room and a garage/workshop. The main house is of good proportions with character features and superb views to the front, it would benefit from some modernisation but has the potential to be a wonderful family home. To the ground floor is a dining kitchen with Stanley range cooker, two reception rooms with open fireplaces, a utility room and a charming sunroom with door to garden. Off the first floor landing are three bedrooms and a bathroom with shower over bath. Page 3! of 8! Page 4! of 8! Page 5! of 8! In the garden Brantwood sits on a magnificent private plot around one acre in size, overlooking the Howgills Fells. A previous owner recreated the Victorian station house gardens, which are divided into a number of areas, with beautiful cottage style flower borders, lawns, box hedging and greenhouse. The original platform still remains, which is ideal for a large south facing seating and dining terrace, overlooking the Howgill Fells. There are a number of stone stores and a gated driveway leads down onto the platform. Page 6! of 8!

This was worth doing, not least since such a survey was years overdue, and I have made a start at implementing his findings. While the magazine was being reviewed, all manner of suggestions were made, but I recommend that we concentrate first on getting the content right before looking at other possibilities such as a glossy finish and colour pictures.

  • Domestic Village Architecture in Eden at the Turn of the Millennium
    Domestic village architecture in Eden at the turn of the millennium. Tom Clare PhD., FSA 1. INTRODUCTION: the purpose of the record. Although the majority of the population of the United Kingdom now live in urban areas the “English village” continues to have a fascination for many as a place to live in (if only the circumstances allow) or holiday in: witness the popularity of television programmes like “Escape to the Country”, Miss Marple or “Emmerdale Farm”. In particular we can recognise approximately where we are by the architecture of the village: the half-timbered house suggesting ‘Shakespeare Country’ or southern England, the cottage with walls of warm yellow stone, parts of the Cotswolds or Yorkshire, whilst the terraced house of brick might suggest a former “pit village”. The architecture betrays locality or origins and as such can be argued to be an important part of our heritage, our sense of place and of ‘belonging’. Such architectural differences relating to sense of place can be described as ‘vernacular architecture’: ‘Vernacular architecture is a category of architecture based on local needs, construction materials and reflecting local traditions. At least originally, vernacular architecture did not use formally-schooled architects, but relied on the design skills and tradition of local builders. However, since the late 19th century many professional architects have worked in versions of the style.’ Wikipedia. And they led, in the 1990’s to various initiatives by the government; most noteably Village Design Statements, initiated
