Title: Eversley Rectory [Go to resource]
Description: A much illustrated building in Victorian times owing to its connection with the Reverend Charles Kingsley, curate of Eversley 1842 and rector 1844-1875. The more usual view is of the main east front with its flanking gables. We are looking at the irregular south front, with three gabled dormers. The house is originally sixteenth or seventeenth century, with eighteenth century alterations. It was brick, of two storeys and attic, with a tiled roof. Is this the famous Study Garden in front? It was laid down in turf, with a wide border on each side, and contained a mass of creeping roses, honeysuckle and Virginia creeper. Reference: Charles Kingsley and Eversley church: notes. 1941, p. 7.
