Orange Cottage is a quaint Victorian, fully detached, large Cottage in the shadow of Splash Mill and overlooking the duck pond in the centre of historic Wraysbury Village. The Cottage is surrounded on 3 sides by its own private garden - the fourth overlooks The Splash - now a duck pond which was the original ford crossing between Staines and Windsor. Since the new bridge was built this all now lies off the beaten track.  The Cottage was featured in Period Living and Traditional Homes magazine in their April 2005 issue. |
