Durmast Hill
Description:
House possibly built for Lt. Sampson Edwards (1797-1878), who bought the land in 1848 and probably lived there until his death. Dr James Martin Kennedy (1850-1905) lived there 1900-1905, adding a 'small windowed bay'; it was occupied 1907-1918 by Miss Eleanor Mary Baring (b. 1857), who had a garden designed by Gertrude Jekyll. It was sold in 1920, possibly to Mrs Lee, who was living there in 1923.
