I can safely say where I have been today, as no one will ever guess, other than my Client where it is. The house that I saw was a delightful Georgian style property, probably built somewhere between 1840 and 1869 (there is a date plaque on the stables) It is very unlikely that it could have been built any earlier, because there was no way of getting ‘Welsh slate’ from Wales (and you don’t get such slate from anywhere else!), until the invention of steam, and the roof is so covered with the original slate. But, and there’s always a ‘but’, this house had a small extension, actually it had two, but only in one, in which the window of bedroom three has an ashlar (bath stone) mullioned surround to it. So, this very small part of the house may have been built at an earlier date, at which time it's roof would, of course ,have been covered with clay pan tiles. Who knows? The main house is large and attractive and has been well improved; a credit to the vendor. There is a detached cottage that suffers from a bit of damp, but was largely in good condition. In addition there are stables full of ‘boy’s toys’ and a separate pig sty that needs some attention, but not much. It is all set in about three acres of level park like grounds. A was a pleasure to be at ‘Innocks’ today…   more »
