Cambridge 2000: Barton Road: 89
This is fairly anonymous looking at the front. There is a garage
at the right and a courtyard at the left, leading to the main
entrance to the house. There is another, smaller, more private,
courtyard behind the garage. The house was built for Reuben Heffer,
chairman of Heffer's. (The same firm of architects had a few years
previously redesigned the
flagship Heffer store
on Trinity Street.) The property is one of the select few which
backs onto the Newnham lake, known as Bolton’s Pit Lake.
The house was demolished at the end of November 2013, to be
replaced with a large, more conventional, house designed by
DPA Architects.
