Full Description
Holden House is a double-pile three-storey brick house with a pyramidal roof crowned by a multiple chimneystack. It stands on a narrow neck of land with the River Trent on its south side and the Trent & Mersey Canal to the north, separated from the house by the lane called Canal Bank. The house was probably built about 1830-40, perhaps as an inn. It was a Post Office in 1901, and remained so until 1955. (1)
