Building record MDR15183 - Corner House, Mill Lane, Heath and Holmewood

It might be possible, but not entirely certain, that a rectangular building oriented roughly northeast - southwest on the Tithe map of 1838 (1) is the same building as part of the present Corner House, off Main Road, Heath. The building, in its current formation and position is clearly shown on the OS 1st edition 25" of c1880. Until modern OS mapping, the building is unlabelled, but current mapping now has it as 'Corner House.' 'Two storey mid C19 house. Corner squared coal measures sandstone with red fish-scale clay tiled roof and red brick ridge stacks. Central doorway with stone pediment, C20 glazed porch and fully-glazed door, flanked by pair of 3-light casement windows to ground floor. One similar window at first floor level above the porch. All windows with heavy stone lintels and tile drip moulds above.' (2)
