Description: | 16, Wexham Road was an Edwardian building constructed in about 1910 and containing 8 flats. It was three-storey with the second floor contained within the roof space. The second floor construction may have been a later addition and the building could have originally been constructed as a single family dwelling house. The building had half timbered gables and a bay window with the lower section constructed in brickwork with some stonework features and the first floor part in painted timber. There were ornamental brick chimney stacks and a plain tiled roof covering. At ground floor there was a recessed entrance porch with ornamental stonework. The building was located on the east side of Wexham Road at the High Street end. The 1899 Ordnance sheet shows the area generally designated as Royal Nurseries with mainly open land apart from some building in Wellington Road [later known as Wellington Street] . By 1994 the Ordnance sheet is showing a new building on the site containing 18 flats and called Milford Court | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Slough Library | Subjects: | Houses | Temporal: | start=1970-01-01; end=1980-01-01; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | Reg Harrison | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
