Notes about this historic site
1 2 Barford House, Barford, Warwick.
Lovie reports that the early 19th century house is, at the time of his survey (1996/7) in very poor condition and that this might threaten the survival of the gardens.
Villa-type pleasure grounds, set behind a high brick wall fronting Wellesbourne road, around drive to W of house, regular tree planting/formal garden to E, kitchen garden, paddocks,parkland to E. At the time of his visit, Lovie describes good contemporary planting to entrance front while the condition of the rear gardens is unknown. Association with Evelyn Waugh.
