In October 1963, the house was featured over three pages in the well-respected journal ‘The Architect & Building News’. Alongside some exceptional images taken by the renowned photographer Colin Westwood, whose images can be seen here, the article went into considerable detail about the concept and construction of the house. It begins by citing the client as M.C. Rimmer, the general contractor as John B. Sharman and the architect as Gerald R. Beech and goes on to explain how the Rimmers were downsizing from a large 18th century house, wanting “a more manageable home which still retained a sense of space”.

The author seems particularly impressed with the central double-height space, writing that “the extension of part of the living room through two floors has created a strong element of vertical space which is apparent from all parts of the house and, with the stairway and bridge link pass through it, the accommodation on the first floor becomes an entity with the ground floor.”
