A country house which Jeremy Corbyn grew up in, and as such the UK media have reported on it. It strikes me that this property is not notable other than this famous association, and I don't believe it needs to have its own article. Uhooep (talk) 09:21, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

  • Delete: no real notability, seems to be a case of political point scoring.--Jack Upland (talk) 10:41, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

  • Question: Is it a listed building on its own, or included in a listed historic district? That matters a lot. It well could be, from its age. The article creator might not have thought that was important, but it could make all the difference here. We need someone with skill looking up listed building status to comment. --Doncram (talk) 05:07, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

::No, it's not a listed building, from a thorough text and map search on https://historicengland.org.uk/ (the website of Historic England, the relevant government body). Nearby [https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1033338 Pave Lane Farmhouse] is Grade II listed, but that's definitely a different building.

  • Delete. Not notable other than for its association with the Corbyns. All the article's references mention it in that context. Qwfp (talk) 11:39, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
  • Delete as not notable. I filtered on the 20th century in google books search and could find no mention of the house other than as part of an address in various lists of prominent citizens. Sometimes the fact someone famous or infamous lived in a house may make it notable, particularly if it is turned into a museum, such as the Eugene V. Debs Home where the U.S. Socialist leader lived. But that hasn't happened in this case. TFD (talk) 15:03, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
