Art deco in Uphill

Our little village of Uphill has an enormous variety of styles of houses; the oldest is probably about three hundred years old – although people have lived in the area for thousands of years, and there are a couple of new properties built ever year, squeezed onto spare land here and there. We have old farm buildings, two pubs, shops, an ex-post office, a restaurant, churches, a church hall and a village hall, wharf-side properties, detached and semi-detached and terraced houses, bungalows, dormers, flats, courts and cottages and even a castle! But perhaps one of the most striking houses is just opposite the village school… just look at it, isn’t it wonderful?

It’s a corner property so it can be admired from two sides.

Look at the classic garage door, the side door and the two long oblong windows.

It is kept in immaculate condition; thank you unknown owners, you give us passers-by pleasure every time we walk past!

    I love art deco anything. those windows are amazing. There is a building here in my little city that could be a twin to yours. If ever I get a camera again, I will send a photo.
