“This house is shortly to be erected at Camberley, on the France Hill Estate, on a site enclosed by an old brick wall, for which area the building has been planned. It was originally intended to- build the house in 2-in. bricks to match the wall, as shown by the view of the south front, but owing to the difficulty in obtaining suitable bricks of this character, an alternative scheme has been got out in local rubble, with concrete dressings and windows. The roof is to be covered with eld local tiles. The main rooms face south, overlooking a formaJ garden, and the entrance, facing norths opens direct on to the roadw^ay. The internal joinery will be oak, and the walls finished white. The architect is Mr. H. Reginald Poulter, of Camberley, the view illustrated being hung at the Royal Academy Exhibition.”
