Alveston House - a history
Mickleton Community Archive
N side of High Street, next to Mickleton Garage, camera facing W.
West side wall and front wall of stone, all other walls brick. Cotswold stone roof, 2s. Bay windows downstairs, sash windows upstairs, centre window blocked with stone. Extensive outbuildings at back.
In 1890’s Wm Lissaman Jnr had a ‘steam joinery and moulding mills’ there. (He was employed to finish the building of Kiftsgate Court. See Story of Our Village, Mickleton Women’s Institute, 1961, p18.) It seems likely that extensive alterations were carried out by him on this house which appears to have been a small farmhouse with land, or orchard, around it well before his time.
