Full Description

A rectangular building is shown in a large land parcel labelled 273 on the Tithe Map for Dunster. The Apportionment describes the property as "House and Garden". [1] A building is located in a similar position, at SS 9887 4380, on the 25 inch 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map. It is unclear, but possible that this is the same building. [2] The building shown on the 1st Edition map had been removed by the time the 25 inch 2nd Edition map was surveyed, to be replaced by a semi detached pair of villas to the north (MEM25284). [3]
