Scriven House was constructed in early Victorian times circa 1848 to a Georgian design, a landmark “Old Bowdon” building in the heart of the Bowdon conservation area.

In recent times the house was used as offices and was sympathetically returned to a single private dwelling of considerable charm and character just over 2 years ago.
