House at Preston Road




Old British house, probably built for the British military or lower to middle-ranking civil servants. Likely to be military due to its location.

This too is a very nice looking house. Wonder where the British got that design from?

They have a pattern book. The government engineers from the PWD has a pattern book which they use and adapt.

A lot of the black and whites evolved from the Anglo-Indian bungalows.

And of course, there is the Arts and Crafts movement.
