Full Description

Former site of an oasthouse to the northeast of Cherry Garden. The rectangular building with three roundels is first recorded on the 1st edition OS Map, suggesting it was constructed in the middle of the nineteenth century. It is recorded in the 2nd and 3rd editions of the OS, but appears to have been demolished by the time of the 4th edition and 1940s aerial photographs prior to the development of modern housing in the area.

Identified by the Historic Farmsteads Survey. (1)
