1898 – “New Place”, Haslemere, Surrey

Built in 1897-8 for the publisher A.M.M. Stedman, later Sir Algernon Methuen. “The plans and views given herewith of these two country houses, designed by Mr. C.F.A. Voysey, are, to a large extent, self-explanatory. Both buildings illustrate that quaint sense of the picturesque which the architect of these residences has associated so tastefully with all his designs. The walls are finished in white rough cast, the roofs are covered with stone slab slates, with red ridge tiles and chimney-pots, while the woodwork ia coloured a good strong green. Stables are attached to the Tooting house : but at Haslemere, tlio larger of the two buildings, the stables are detached, and a feature is ploaoingly made of the garden slope« and terrace steps.” Gertrude Jekyll collaborated on the garden.
