“The rather imposing tollhouse at Whiddon Down about six miles from Moretonhampstead stands on the north side of the road just up from Tollhouse Cross at SX 691 922. It was strategically built in the fork of a minor road into the village from the A382 and probably dates from the time when the road was first adopted. The two-storey building has been very much extended and modified but still retains its three-sided angle frontage with many windows and has a porch on the north-west side.”
