Southampton City Council Archaeology Unit carried out an archaeological building record at 58 West End Road, Bitterne on behalf of Mr De Souza. The earliest form of the building consisted of a two-storey building with four rooms arranged around a central corridor and staircase. Early on the building was extended with the addition of a cellar, servant’s quarters, outbuildings and a two-storey extension overlooking the rear garden. At a similar time land to the south of the building was acquired. During the 1930s the house became a guest house known as Heathfield Lodge and was further extended and altered at this point with the addition of a back staircase, upstairs bathroom and ceramic tile fireplaces.
