This historic building has been an integral part of Bletchingley Village for over 200 years. Now a beautiful family home, it was once a popular 'general produce' village shop. It became 'Rice Bros', a cycle agent just before WW1 and in 1918 became 'aj Bird the fishmongers, fruiterers and greengrocer' before being passing onto new owners in 1920. This family remained until the current owners purchased the home 28 years ago.
