Representation Summary:

Page 186
I would like colonial house to be considered for inclusion in the Local List.

Address: 62, High Street, Rayleigh.

Two storey red-brick building with a slate roof. Originally built in the style of a colonial tea-planters house, now enlarged with two modern side extensions.

Reasons for inclusion: one of the most idiosyncratic houses in the Rochford District. Everyone who passes it is struck by its unusual design. The modern extensions have been quite sympathetically done, and do not detract from the attractiveness of the building.
