I keep coming back to this and searching the internet but nothing seems to match. Looking at what could be a mast in the trees - could it be a mast on a railway line?  Just thinking out loud really

Have been trying to find an updated pic of Coldharbour Manor Leafsheath Lane East Grinstead

Street View only shows bushes.  ::)

Don't think it is but I am annoyed because after looking through 4 volumes of ''Recent English Domestic Architecture'' I want it to be so I can stop looking  ;D

Thank you Jaywit

That site had a previous listing - from 2009?- and the blurb was ''built early 1900s arts and crafts etc'' and while I could see the wings I wanted to see depth.

I have been on archive.org looking through English domestic architecture and buildings etc from the 1920s and back.

I wont give up  :-\

Someone asked why this aspect of the house was photographed. The obvious response to that was that we haven't found the other yet.

But looking through a lot I think this aspect - whether it be back or front - was to show the lawn and house together to give the impression of space, because with wealth comes space.

Its also a common theme in schools, asylums etc

Still puzzled about the paintwork! Who paints their bay window frames in alternating light/dark shades?
Were they perhaps trying to add a mock-Tudor element (mock mock-Tudor?) to the building? Was the Arts & Crafts/Queen Anne revival/tile-hung walls/hospital-style-double-doors ensemble not enough for them?  ;D

Just the fashion of the time I suppose. Who paints the walls in a room different colours, or only hangs wallpaper on one wall out of four in a room?  :)
