This might be a new attribution. It appears that Lamb & Rich were the designers of George Lowther’s 1891 house on Lowther Point, apparently part of Indian Head Point, in Riverside, Greenwich. An aerial view of the house appears on page 158 of Rachel Carley’s Building Greenwich. After serving at least four generations of Lowthers, the house appears to have been sold and demolished recently.
The replacement building’s western wing with its three dormers and tower does look slightly similar — alas, not similar enough — to the old house:
Yes, the original Lowther house was torn down. What a shame.
(Acquaintance of the family).
back in the late 60″s to the late 70″s my family lived on lowther point in the green cottage. i have alot of good memiones of living there. been in the original house and i can still see the inside with my eyes closed . the house was beautiful with old antiques. my favorite roon was the florida roon that overlook the back yard. one thing i remember is when george the 4th had a party he would put the flag out by the front door. it was a shame to tare it down .the house went from floor the floor. everyone will have there memiones of lowther point.
Does anyone know what happened to the beautiful antiques that were in the lowther house? Were they auctioned off? If you know please post it.
