EDO6276 - Horsehill Cottage, Stoke Abbott: desk-based assessment 2009

Review of the designation and history of building development of the cottage and an assessment of the alterations carried out since purchase in 2005 with respect to current conservation principles. The building had already been significantly altered from its original form by 'unsymapthetic' changes to the ground floor and extension in the 1960s. It was concluded that despite the lack of listed building consent, much of the new work has been within general conservation principles using sympathetic and appropriate materials. Every effort has been made to make the dilapidated building habitable.
