Billericay, Essex

 

Sheredays, 22 High Street

Sheredays (Sheridays) is mentioned in a 1917 sale catalogue of the Spitty Estates :- ERO document D/DGs/E4.

The barns were stables and coach houses of the 18th century or early 19th century. The original building was timber-framed but was encased in brick during the 18th century and the timbers are now hidden.

The front elevation is a good example of Georgian architecture with well-proportioned sash windows. The pedimented porch is supported on Tuscan columns and has a semi-circular fanlight.

George Fitz-George IV, was drowned whilst attending a boy's academy here in 1819.
