Now a private house.
No longer used as toll house, no toll charge sign, only the windows to show it's previous use as toll house.
There used to be cast iron posts at the side of the road, between Newbold and Shipston to mark the miles between Stratford upon Avon and Shipston on Stour, which sadly 'disappeared'* last year (2007).

*Believed to have been stolen for their scrap value.
