Llanthony Abbey farmhouse, Gloucester
This restored Victorian farmhouse, near Gloucester Docks, was built around 1870 for the tenant farmer on the footprint of an even earlier farmhouse. This elaborate Tudor Gothic house is made of brick, and the design is thought to be by P. C. Hardwick, an established Victorian architect. He used the same 'lozenge' features from the outer wall of Llantony Priory precinct in the background as decoration, which ties this building nicely into the site. By the start of the 20th century it was known as Llanthony Abbey Farm, and in the 1920s a London newspaper advertisement offering "board and residence” appeared in The Times.
