Glenthorne House

Glenthorne House is on the High Street, close to the River Meon

East Meon High Street looking east, probably early 20th century. The small hut on the left was a kiosk where a fishmonger from Winchester sold his wares once a week, then the barn of what was Coles' dairy, then the Gaite House where Coles operated his shop, then Glenthorne House. Tilbury's shop, later Adams and then Savage & Parsons is on the other side of the street.

This photo was taken from outside what is now East Meon Stores and was then Aburrow's wheelwright workshop. The Institute can be seen on the right,, then Barnards Corner. On the left, Glenthorne House in the distance.

The front of Glenthorne house, date unknown. The brickwork is typical of the William and Mary period

A view of the north side of Glenthorne House, which is less elaborate than the street front, probably because it was not 'on show'.

View pf the front entrance

Between the wars. The shop was probably then David Coles' dairy; his cows grazed on Glenthorne Meadow, opposite, and watered in the river.

The north side of Glenthorne, built without pretension because it would not be overlooked.
