1885 – Carton Tower, Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire

Perspective view published in The Architect, October 16th 1885.

A summer residence for Frederick Pritchard from Bayswater, London. He built on the site a summer residence which he called Carton Tower. In 1908 this was bought by publisher Walter Judd, who greatly extended the house and renamed it Holly Hill. Walter Judd died in 1931, but his family continued to live at Holly Hill until 1945.

“The view from the summit of the tower is particularly charming, and includes many notable objects, among them the spire of Stoke Poges church …., also a long stretch of the valley of the Thames, including a fine view of Windsor Castle and the Long Walk.”
