Tudor View Cottages - a history
Written by members of Mickleton Women’s Institute:
E side of High Street, opposite Tudor House.
Camera facing N.
Rose Cottage, brick and Tudor Cottage, stone and half-timber, made a pleasant corner of High Street. It was a pity that a demolition order was sought, (granted December 1970), by the Church* in order to build new property for sale (in 1971), rather than putting the existing cottages into repair.
While deploring the loss of one more corner of the old village, it is agreed that the use of Cotswold stone to face the front of the new cottages and the preservation of the chestnut tree at the side, help to make the houses fit reasonably well into their setting.
*These old cottages, together with Tudor House, were left to Mickleton Church in the Will of Col R Booth/wife.
