Judging by its appearance I thought it was 1920s/30s, but if it is post WW2 then it could be WNF. But unlike Airey houses (and similar) when the VOA were valuing council houses for RTB, as far as I can remember WNF were never considered to be "defective dwellings"FreeBear said:

If I had their car, I might be tempted to sit in the drive and admire it. What do we reckon? Volvo P1800 or something else? (I'm not certain).Dandie89 said:https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/156084380 Well, I suppose if you have a nice car you might want to sit in the drive admiring it.0 -

Jaguar xj6 - probably a coupe, judging from street view. And the house position/sunshine explains the seating.lincroft1710 said:

That looks like the infamous "Beast of Briarigg", Well spotted, looks deceptively small there at a distance but has startled many an unwary traveller in the dead of night. Report to the authorities so they can inform the locals to close up and keep children and sheep safe inside.joho said:FreeBear said:
