Dunarden, Sunny Brow Road Archer Park, Middleton

Dunarden was built in 1898 in the Archer Park area of Middleton, not far from the town centre. John Archer considers that Dunarden demonstrates the influence on Wood of the Arts and Crafts movement. He sees in the design some influences of Wood's contemporary Charles Francis Annesley Voysey (1857 1941), in particular the sloping butresses. He says that the house is "..well planned and is made very attractive by the garden layout. This is the first known instance where it appears that Wood had an opportunity of designing house and garden together."
