Executive Summary

This archaeological desk-based assessment has been researched and prepared on behalf of ADG Architects and their client and assesses the archaeological potential of land at Lambourne Road, Chigwell. The report forms the desk-based assessment required by paragraph 128 of the NPPF to identify the presence of heritage (archaeological) assets and, where present, to assess impact on their significance.

This report addresses archaeological issues as required by the NPPF and provides detailed information on the archaeological potential of the study site and its surrounding area.

This assessment has identified that there are no designated archaeological assets located on the study site itself or in its immediate surrounding area, such that their significance or setting may be affected by proposed development within the study site.

Based on current evidence available in the HER and HEA, a low potential for significant archaeological deposits has been identified for all periods on the study site. Any sub- surface features that may survive are likely to be limited to that of former agricultural practices of limited significance. Development of the study site in the 19th and 20th century is likely to have truncated or potentially removed earlier archaeological deposits within the footprint of Woodview, should they have been present.

The proposed development has the potential to impact upon below ground archaeological deposits, should they be present. However, parts of the development site have been previously impacted by 19th and 20th century development and archaeological deposits within these areas are likely to have been severely truncated or removed by this former development. Any archaeological remains that may be present within the study site are likely to be of no more than local significance and should not preclude or constrain the proposed development.

It is considered that no further archaeological work is required in support of the proposed development. Should further limited archaeological mitigation be warranted, such works could reasonably be secured by a condition of planning consent.

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE OF STUDY

1.1 This archaeological desk-based assessment has been researched and prepared by James Archer and Hannah Smalley of CgMs Consulting, commissioned by ADG Architects on behalf of their clients.

1.2 The assessment considers land off Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex (hereafter referred to as the study site) which is being considered for a retirement block development. The study site has an area of approximately 1.2ha hectares and is centred at National Grid Reference 545776, 192970 (Fig. 1).

1.3 In accordance with government policy on archaeology within the planning process (Section 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework) and local policy, this assessment draws together the available archaeological, topographic and land-use information in order to clarify the archaeological potential of the study site.

1.4 Additionally, in accordance with the ‘Standard and Guidance for Historic Environment Desk-Based Assessments’ (Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) 2014), it incorporates an examination of evidence in the Essex and Greater Historic Environment Record (HER), the Historic England Archive (HEA), Essex Record Office, incorporates published and unpublished material and charts historic land-use through a map regression exercise. A site visit was conducted in July 2016.

1.5 As a result, the assessment enables relevant parties to assess the significance of any designated and undesignated heritage assets within the study site, assess the potential for as yet to be discovered archaeological assets and enables potential impacts on assets to be identified, along with the need for design, civil engineering or archaeological solutions.

2.0 PLANNING BACKGROUND AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FRAMEWORK

2.1 In March 2012, the government published the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). The National Planning Policy Guidance (PPG) was published online in March 2014.

2.1.1 Section 12 of the NPPF, entitled Conserving and enhancing the historic environment provides guidance for planning authorities, property owners, developers and others on the conservation and investigation of heritage assets. Overall, the objectives of Section 12 of the NPPF can be summarised as seeking the:

x Delivery of sustainable development x Understanding the wider social, cultural, economic and environmental benefits brought by the conservation of the historic environment x Conservation of England's heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance, and x Recognition that heritage contributes to our knowledge and understanding of the past.

2.1.2 Section 12 of the NPPF recognises that intelligently managed change may sometimes be necessary if heritage assets are to be maintained for the long term. Paragraph 128 states that planning decisions should be based on the significance of the heritage asset, and that the level of detail supplied by an applicant should be proportionate to the importance of the asset and should be no more than sufficient to review the potential impact of the proposal upon the significance of that asset.

2.1.3 Heritage Assets are defined in Annex 2 of the NPPF as: a building, monument, site, place, area or landscape positively identified as having a degree of significance meriting consideration in planning decisions. They include designated heritage assets (as defined in the NPPF) and assets identified by the local planning authority during the process of decision-making or through the plan-making process.

2.1.4 Annex 2 also defines Archaeological Interest as a heritage asset which holds or potentially could hold, evidence of past human activity worthy of expert investigation at some point. Heritage assets with archaeological interest are the primary source of evidence about the substance and evolution of places, and of the people and cultures that made them.

2.1.5 A Designated Heritage Asset comprises a: World Heritage Site, Scheduled Monument, Listed Building, Protected Wreck Site, Registered Park and Garden, Registered Battlefield or Conservation Area.

2.1.6 Significance is defined as: The value of a heritage asset to this and future generations because of its heritage interest. This interest may be archaeological, architectural, artistic or historic. Significance derives not only from a heritage asset’s physical presence, but also from its setting.

2.1.7 In short, government policy provides a framework which:

x Protects the significance of nationally important designated Heritage Assets

x Protects the contribution made by settings of such designations to that significance

x In appropriate circumstances seeks adequate information (from desk based assessment and field evaluation where necessary) to enable informed decisions

x Provides for the investigation and recording of the significance of heritage assets to be lost (wholly or in part) in a manner proportionate to their importance and the impact, and to make this evidence publicly accessible.

2.2 In considering any planning application for development, the planning authority will be mindful of the framework set by government policy, in this instance the NPPF, by current Development Plan Policy and by other material considerations.

Local Planning Policy

2.3 Local Planning Policy is currently provided by a number of policies from the adopted Council 1998 Local Plan and the Adopted 2006 Local Plan Alterations. The Heritage Conservation policy relevant to the study site is listed below:

POLICY HC1- SCHEDULED MONUMENTS AND OTHER ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES ON SITES OF KNOWN OR POTENTIAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL INTEREST, PLANNING PERMISSION WILL ONLY BE GRANTED FOR DEVELOPMENT WHICH WOULD NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT NATIONALLY IMPORTANT REMAINS, WHETHER SCHEDULED OR NOT, OR THEIR SETTINGS. THE COUNCIL WILL ALSO REQUIRE:

(I) THE RESULTS OF AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVALUATION TO BE SUBMITTED AS PART OF ANY APPLICATION; (II) THE PRESERVATION IN SITU, AND PROVISION FOR APPROPRIATE MANAGEMENT, OF THOSE REMAINS AND THEIR SETTINGS CONSIDERED TO BE OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANCE;

© CgMs Limited 6 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

(III)PROVISION FOR RECORDING AND/OR EXCAVATION BY A COMPETENT ARCHAEOLOGICAL ORGANISATION PRIOR TO THE COMMENCEMENT OF DEVELOPMENT, WHERE IN SITU PRESERVATION IS NOT JUSTIFIED.

2.4 The study site does not lie within or adjacent to an Ancient Landscape, Registered Parkland, Protected Lanes, Commons and Village Greens, Epping Forest or a Conservation Area as identified on the Proposals Map. No designated (archaeological) heritage assets are present within or in proximity to the study site for their significance or setting to be harmed by development.

2.5 This assessment aims to clarify the specific archaeological potential of the study site and, in accordance with the NPPF and Local Plan policy, to identify the significance of any archaeological assets which might be impacted by development, enabling appropriate mitigation measures to be formulated.

3.0 GEOLOGY AND TOPOGRAPHY

3.1 Geology

3.1.1 The solid geology of the study site is clay, silt and sand of the Claygate Member. (British Geological Sheet 285, 2000). Overlying superficial deposits of diamicton of the Lowerstoft Formation are also mapped across the study site.

3.1.2 Soils across the study site are mapped as “slowly permeable seasonally wet slightly acid but base-rich loamy and clayey soils” (Soilscape 18 on the LandIS online soil database).

3.1.2 No geotechnical information was available for the study site at the time of writing (August 2016).

3.2 Topography

3.2.1 Chigwell lies to the south-east of Epping Forest and the within a gently undulating landscape interspersed with minor tributaries to the River Roding and drainage channels. The study site is located to the west of Country Park, in Chigwell Row, a hamlet to the south of Chigwell which runs along a high ridge and which extends eastward towards Lambourne and Romford. The study site lies on top of a small hill at an approximate height of 87m AOD.

3.2.2 The River Roding is situated over 3.3km to the north-west of the study site. Minor drainage channels are noted c.500m from the study site, located on the lower slopes of the hill and feeding the tributaries of the River Roding.

4.0 ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL BACKGROUND, INCLUDING ASSESSMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

The timescales used in this report are as follows:

Prehistoric Palaeolithic 800,000 - 12,000 BC Mesolithic 12,000 - 4,000 BC Neolithic 4,000 - 1,800 BC Bronze Age 1,800 - 600 BC Iron Age 600 - AD 43

Historic Roman AD 43 - 410 Saxon/Early Medieval AD 410 - 1066 Medieval AD 1066 - 1485 Post Medieval AD 1486 - 1800 Modern AD 1800 - Present

4.1 Introduction

4.1.1 This assessment is based on a consideration of evidence in the Essex and Historic Environment Record (HER), Historic England Archive (HEA), the National Heritage List for England (NLHE) for the study site and a zone 1km in extent surrounding its boundary. The Essex Record Office was also visited in order to examine historic maps relating to the study site.

4.1.2 There are no designated heritage assets recorded within the study site or within the wider search radius.

4.1.3 The study site is not located within an Ancient Landscape, Registered Parkland, Protected Lanes, Commons and Village Greens, Epping Forest or a Conservation Area as identified on the Local Plan Proposals Map. No locally listed buildings are present within or adjacent to the study site.

4.1.4 This assessment considers archaeological heritage assets only.

4.1.5 Non-designated archaeological assets recorded by the HER or HEA (i.e. archaeological finds/features within the study site and its surroundings) are reviewed below; their distribution is illustrated at Appendix 1.

© CgMs Limited 9 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

4.1.6 This chapter reviews existing archaeological evidence for the study site and the archaeological/historical background of the general area and, in accordance with the NPPF, considers the potential for as yet undiscovered archaeological evidence on the study site.

4.1.7 Chapter 5 subsequently considers the study site conditions and whether any theoretical potential identified in this chapter is likely to survive.

4.2 Previous Archaeological Investigations

4.2.1 The study site itself has not been subject to archaeological investigation and there are no records of any archaeological events within the search radius of the Essex Historic Environment Record. Event records present within the Great London Historic Environment Record are sited over 900m to the south of the study site, the results of which have no direct relevance to the study site.

4.3 Prehistoric (Palaeolithic – Iron Age)

4.3.1 Although there is known Prehistoric settlement associated with the Lower Lea and Roding valleys (O’Connor 2005), evidence for the presence of Prehistoric activity within the search radius is limited to the discovery of a late Iron Age coin recorded as part of the Portable Antiquities Scheme (MEX 1043588) 900m to the north-east of the study site. During this period the study site may have occupied a predominantly wooded landscape, associated with the later known Epping and Hainault Forests. The clearance of woodland on higher ground may have begun in the late Bronze Age period and continued into the Iron Age (O’Connor 2005, 8). It is considered likely that Iron Age occupation occurred within the local landscape although current evidence is very limited (ibid).

4.3.2 There is currently no evidence to suggest the presence of significant settlement or occupation activity within the study site or its immediate vicinity. Although this, in part, may be a reflection of the absence of previous archaeological investigation conducted in the vicinity of the study site, the archaeological evaluation works conducted over 900m from the study site identified no archaeological deposits predating the 19th century (GLHER ELO3993). A low potential is therefore identified for significant Prehistoric activity within the study site.

4.4 Roman

4.4.1 No Roman activity or settlement sites are recorded on the study site or within close proximity. Current evidence for Roman activity within the search radius is limited to the route of a possible Roman road from Lambourne to Walthamstow, recorded to have passed some 360m to the south of the study site (GLHER MLO106810). A roman coin is also noted to have been discovered near Hainault (locality grid reference provided only) (HEA915213). It is also congectured that Chigwell may have been the documented Roman site of Durolitum, c. 3km to the north of the study site (O’Connor 2005, 6).

4.4.2 Given the distance of the study site from the Roman road/Durolitum and the absence of known Roman activity within or in proximity to the study site, a low potential is identified for any significant Roman activity within the study site.

4.5 Saxon – Medieval

4.5.1 Documentary evidence suggests that a settlement at Chigwell, located over 1.7km to the north-west of the study site, was in existence prior to the Norman Conquest (Domesday Survey entry - Williams and Martin 2003). The possible site of Chig Well is recorded some 450m to the south-west of the study site (EHER MEX-14447), which may represent a spring from which the settlement derives its name (‘Ciccingawielle’ - the spring of Cicca’s people EHER MEX14447). However, the study site during this period is located well beyond the limits of any settlement focus. The roadside hamlet of Chigwell Row, in which the study site is located, is likely to have been established around the 17th century.

4.5.2 The study site is located well beyond any focus of known settlement activity at this time and would have lain on the edge of Hainault Forest. The study site is likely to have been an area of undeveloped common or partial woodland, possibly utilised as pasture.

4.5.3 As such, a low-nil potential for the study site to contain any previously unrecorded significant archaeological remains of Saxon-Medieval date is identified. Archaeological activity, if present, is likely to be limited to that of agricultural practices only.

4.6 Post-Medieval and Modern

4.6.1 As mentioned above, the early development of the roadside hamlet of Chigwell Row occurs around the 17th century, with the primary focus of settlement activity c.900m

© CgMs Limited 11 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

to the east of the study site. The possible site of a Post-Medieval windmill is noted to be located within the southern area of the study site. The post mill constructed roundhouse windmill continued in use until at least 1828 but was struck by lightning in 1842 (EHER MEX14608/ HEA408298). Although the HER denotes the windmill location in the proximity to the southern site boundary, review of the map regression denotes a windmill to the west of the study site (EHER 14449). The 1839 Tithe map also records Millers House (plot 572) to the west of the study site and a circular feature to the north-east of the cottage, most probably representing the mill. It is therefore likely that EHER MEX14608 is incorrectly positioned and should be sited to the south- west of the study site and may represent a duplicated record of EHER MEX14449.

4.6.2 Additional EHER entries noted in the surrounding area predominantly relate to the Post-Medieval development of Chigwell Row and World War II home land security infrastructure and do not have any direct bearing on the study site.

4.6.3 The HEA incorrectly locates Woodlands Farmhouse, a Grade II listed 17th century house (HEA 1307048), to the west of the study site. This house is correctly located over a 1km to the north-east of the study site, sited to the north of Lambourne Road. Similarly, the HEA also records the location of High View, a 17th century house originally named Woodlands, within the study site. This may also be incorrectly located, as the description entry noted in the Victoria County History to which the record refers (Powell 1956) bears no resemblance to the 19th century large detached residence known as Woodview present within the study site. Although late 18th century mapping of the site does suggest the presence of buildings fronting Lambourne Road within the study site, the study site has been subject to re- development by 1839 with the construction of a large residence, later known as Woodlands. The site of High View, formally Woodlands, may be associated with Woodland Farmhouse sited over a kilometre to the east of the study site.

4.6.4 In this period, understanding of settlement, land-use and the utilisation of the landscape is enhanced by cartographic and documentary sources which can give additional detail to data contained within the HER.

4.6.5 As briefly mentioned above the 1777 Chapman and Andre map of Essex illustrates the early development of Chigwell Row (Figure 2). A roadside dwelling and associated enclosure is depicted on the study site and a windmill is noted to the south-west. The 1799 Ordnance Survey drawing (Figure 2) shows a similar arrangement.

© CgMs Limited 12 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

4.6.6 The 1839 Chigwell Tithe Map (Figure 4) provides the earliest detailed map of the study site. The map shows the study site occupied by a substantial dwelling, known as Woodlands (owned by Joseph Walford Q.C.), set back from Lambourne Road. A pond is shown in the south-western corner of the study site. It is unclear whether the earlier buildings depicted on the late 18th century maps have been incorporated into Woodlands or whether these were demolished prior to the construction of the 19th century house. The 1863 Chigwell Enclosure Map (Figure 5) illustrates a similar enclosed property boundary, although no detailed layout of the house is shown. Between 1850 and 1870 Chigwell Row was greatly altered by the increased demand for residential and agricultural land (O’Connor 2005, 14).

4.6.7 The 1872 Ordnance Survey (Figure 6) illustrates a similar house plot to that depicted on the earlier Tithe map; although a range of ancillary buildings is noted extending from the south-eastern wing of the house. An outbuilding or greenhouse is shown at the southern site boundary. A pond is still shown in the south-western corner of the study site.

4.6.8 By the 1896 Ordnance Survey (Figure 7), Woodlands has undergone re-development, with extensions to the west and north-eastern part of the building and demolition of the northern wing. This work was completed in in 1881, as recorded by a date plaque on the exterior of the building. Bettley and Pevsner record the architect as W. G. Bartleet (Bettley and Pevnser 2007). It is understood that the house was occupied by a prominent land owner (the current owner claims that this was the Savills family) and it is reputed that Charles Dickens and Sir Winston Churchill were guests at the home (see Appendix 2).

4.6.9 By 1963-69 (Figure 8), the range of buildings shown to the east of Woodlands has been removed, although the house itself remains unchanged. The house is now referred to as High View (a home for the aged). An area of terraced landscaping is depicted to the rear of the house and much of the surrounding grounds are shown as wooded.

4.6.10 The study site itself remains unchanged on the 1972-1988 and 1992 Ordnance Survey maps (Figures 9-10), although modern development is shown to the immediate west and north of the study site. By 1992 the building is known as Wood View and remains a home for the aged.

4.6.11 From information provided in c.2011 Sales Particular (Appendix 2), it is understood that Wood View was sold in the mid-1990s and underwent an extensive programme of refurbishment to convert the house back to a residential dwelling.

© CgMs Limited 13 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

4.6.12 Current evidence would suggest that the study site was predominantly utilised as an area of agricultural land throughout the Post-Medieval period. The current HER reference to the possible location of a windmill on or in close proximity to the study site. However, the map regression has demonstrated that this is incorrectly located and would have been sited to the south-west of the study site. The late 18th century maps of the area show roadside dwellings within the study site. It is unclear whether these structures were incorporated into the Woodlands residence depicted on the 1839 tithe map. However, it is clear that there is little or no evidence from external inspection during the site visit and internal photographs from the sales particular (see Appendix 2) of any structural remains pre-dating the 19th century. The series of 19th and 20th century development and renovation is likely to have substantially removed or altered any earlier fabric, if present. The construction of Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands) and its later alterations and extensions is likely to have removed, obscured or truncated earlier archaeological deposits present within the footprint of this building, should they have been present. Overall, a low potential for significant Post-Medieval archaeological activity is identified for the study site. The majority of any activity, if present, is likely to be limited to that of former agricultural practices and former structural remains associated with Woodview.

4.7 Designated Archaeological Heritage Assets

4.7.1 There are no designated archaeological heritage assets located within the 1km search radius of the study site boundary.

4.8 Historic Landscape

4.8.1 Historic mapping of the area shows that the study site was an area of predominantly agricultural land up until the development of the residential dwelling of Woodview in the early 19th century and earlier roadside structures noted on the late 18th century mapping. By the mid-20th century, Chigwell Row has been subject to extensive residential development. Although the western and eastern property boundaries of the study site reflect the location of known Post-Medieval enclosure boundaries (and has been postulated to be of an earlier Medieval origin (O’Connor 2005)), the survival of historic landscape elements in the area is limited and piecemeal and the area is predominantly experienced as an area of residential and urban development.

4.9 Assessment of Significance

4.9.1 Based on current evidence, a low potential for significant archaeological activity has been identified for all periods, suggesting that the study site was not the likely focus for settlement, but would have predominantly been in agricultural use from at least the early Medieval period onwards. Any archaeological deposits that may have been present within the study site are likely to have been subject to truncation or removal by later 19th and 20th century development, especially within the footprint Woodview.

4.9.2 Although it is unclear whether earlier pre-19th century structural remains were incorporated into the development of the Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands) residence, it is considered if such remains are present; these have been considerably altered or removed. The limited level of archaeological potential recognised for the study site is further considered to be reduced as a result of the construction and development of Woodview and associated landscaping of the grounds. Based on the anticipated nature of potential archaeological remains to be present within the site and the probable level of truncation and impact by 19th and 20th century development, archaeological deposits (if present) are anticipated to be no more than of local significance.

5.0 SITE CONDITIONS, THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND IMPACT ON HERITAGE ASSETS

5.1 Site Conditions

5.1.1 The study site was visited on 28th July 2016. The study site comprises the 2.5 storey building of Woodview (Plates 3-12) and its surrounding grounds (Plates 1, 8-10, 13- 16). The building, a large detached residential house and former care home, is sited in the central area of the study site, the main building has a cellar (although the dimensions of this are unknown) and there is evidnce of terracing and landscaping of the grounds to the rear of the house. A modern detached 3 bed house and garage is sited off the main access driveway to the east of Woodview (Plate 14). A tarmac car park area extends along the eastern side of Woodview (Plate 2). The remaining study site area forms the surrounding lawn to the property, with the periphery of the study site covered in woodland planting (Plates 13-16).

5.1.2 The construction and development of Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands) in the 19th and 20th century is likely to have removed, truncated or obscured any earlier archaeological deposits that may have been present within the footprint of this building complex.

5.2 The Proposed Development

5.2.1 The proposed development would comprise the demolition of Woodview and the construction of three residential apartment blocks, with associated access, car-parking and gardens (see Appendix 3). The apartment blocks would be partially sited across the footprint of Woodview and its former ancillary buildings to its east and the current modern detached dwelling and garage (former care home manager’s residence) in the eastern part of the study site.

5.3 Impact on Heritage Assets

5.3.1 There are no designated archaeological assets located within the 1km radius search of the study site. Although Woodview represents a large 19th century residential dwelling, it is not a designated heritage asset and is not included on the local list of buildings.

5.3.2 Groundworks associated with the proposed development have the potential to remove or truncate any archaeological features that may be present within the study site.

5.3.3 However, this assessment has identified a low potential for the study site to contain any significant previously unrecorded archaeological activity dating to all periods.

© CgMs Limited 16 HS/22563 Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment Lambourne Road, Chigwell, Essex

Should archaeological features be present within the study site, it is considered that they would be of no more than of local significance and should not preclude or constrain development. Furthermore, the 19th and 20th century development of Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands) is likely to have truncated or removed archaeological deposits that may have been present within the footprint of the existing and former buildings. The proposed development would partially occupy the footprint of the 19th and 20th century development. Therefore, the potential for archaeological remains to be present within the area of proposed new development is further diminished due to probable truncation and removal of archaeological deposits by the construction and associated landscaping of Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands).

5.3.4 It is considered that no further archaeological work would be required in support of a planning application. Should further limited archaeological mitigation be warranted, such works could reasonably be secured by a condition of planning consent.

6.0 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

6.1 This report addresses archaeological issues as required by the NPPF and provides detailed information on the archaeological potential of the study site and its surrounding area.

6.2 This assessment has identified that there are no designated archaeological assets located within 1km of the study site boundary.

6.3 Based on current evidence, a low potential for significant archaeological activity has been identified for all periods within the study site, with any activity likely to be limited to that of former agricultural practices only. The limited potential identified by this study is considered to be further diminished as a result of late 19th and 20th century development of Woodview (formerly known as Woodlands), the effects of which are likely to have severely truncated or entirely removed any sub-surface remains within the footprint of the existing and former buildings.

6.4 Current evidence suggests that should archaeological remains be present within the study site these are likely to be of no more than local significance and should not preclude or constrain its proposed development. It is therefore considered that no further archaeological work would be required in support of a planning application. Should further limited archaeological mitigation be warranted, such works could reasonably be secured by a condition of planning consent.

A truly substantial Victorian residence dating back to 1851 providing 17,500 square feet of accommodation with a wealth of character that is set within secluded grounds of 2¾ acres (STLS) and enjoying a southerly aspect.

In speaking with the family, this is what they explain, “We had been looking for something rather special and to be able to accommodate a large family and we rather think the decision to purchase this truly substantial Victorian residence was made before we even stepped inside. There was a stately feel to the house and whilst it was evident that the accommodation was in need of improvement, it would be a fantastic home for our family and we have lived here very happily for the past 15 years.”

The family adds, “We understand the home was built in 1851 and was occupied by a prominent land owner within the Chigwell area. It is also reputed that Charles Dickens and Sir Winston Churchill were guests at the home.”

“We acquired the property at a time of needing work, so we had to undertake a refurbishment programme,” explains the family. “It took us two and a half years to restore and renovate the house and we were careful to preserve the elegance and period features of the home. The house sits in the middle of approximately 3 acres,” adds the family. “The grounds are surrounded by mature trees and it adds hugely to the feeling of privacy and tranquility that exists here. We have enjoyed sharing the house with family and friends over the years and held many parties and functions here. It would be fair to say that entertaining here is easy. The house and grounds just absorb every demand made upon it.”

“The location has been excellent,” explains the family. “We have this feeling of being away from it all, yet it is so easy for getting into the City and Central London with Grange Hill station being within approximately half a mile together with a local parade of shops which is just beyond the tube station. Education is well served with EWIPIGXMSRSJWGLSSPW[MXLMRXLIEVIE;IWLEPPHI½RMXIP]QMWWPMZMRK in such a unique home.” Woodview

Woodview equals family living on a grand scale. This imposing and truly substantial residence is believed to date back to 1851 and has been restored during the mid to late 1990s. There is approximately 17,500 square feet of accommodation which provides a sense of scale that only comes with a home like with a wealth of character and charm including high ceilings and an abundance of English Oak panelling. Once through a character entrance porch and inner vestibule, you are greeted by a grand reception hall with a 12’ high ceiling and measuring 26’3 x 11’. The walls have oak panelling up to a dado rail level. The hall serves via solid oak doors three reception VSSQWERHEWXYH]EWXSRI½RMWLIHEVGL[E]VIWXMRKSRQEVFPITMPPEVW provides access to a continuation of the hall with an impressive wide XYVRMRKSEOWXEMVGEWIPIEHMRKXSEKEPPIVMIH½VWX¾SSVPERHMRK[LMPWXE QEKRM½GIRXWXEMRIHKPEWWEXVMYQGVIEXIWEJIEXYVIEXXLIXSTSJXLI stairwell.

There is also a sauna room with en-suite washroom.

The grounds approaching 3 acres (STLS) are paraded by a variety of trees and are approached via an electric gated entrance leading to a driveway that splits and leads to the front of the house for guests together with extending to the side of the home for further parking.

Set within the grounds is a 3 bedroom detached residence which can be used as an annexe or alternatively could be rented out to create an income to the home.
