Lilliput Lane Cottages "Ash Nook" Mint in original box with the deed. English Collection - South East. Height: 7.65cm
The village of Much Hadham in Hertfordshire, where nearby, the sculptor Henry Moore lived and worked, contains many cottages like this. Ash Nook would originally have been inhabited by a cooper - whose woodworking skills have been employed in the construction of its timber framing and weaterboarding. Later, this charming cottage may well have been occupied by an artisan or master wheelwright.
