Broad House (Everitt Park)

House. Late C18 with large early C19 additions; restored
1984-5. The earlier work is in flint with brick dressings
under slate roofs. Gothick style.
2 storeys. The original work consists of a central canted
block with side wings right and left. The central element has
2 window bays to the face and one each to the return facets.
Square porch off-set to the right of the face with an arched
opening under a crenellated parapet. The crenellations had
rebated merlons. One horned 6/6 sash left and two, unhorned,
to the first floor. The canted bays have one Gothick sash to
each floor: pointed arches with Y-tracery. The parapet is
crenellated like that to the porch. The side wings have both
been truncated to one storey and have had brick second storeys
added.
The right-hand wing has a late C20 upper storey, the left-hand
wing an early C20 addition elaborated and extended into a
substantial square 2-storey block dated 1902. The ground floor
remains C18: gabled central porch on kneelers. One Y-tracery
sash left. Two 6/6 early C20 sashes to the first floor under
gauged skewback arches. This block has a tall hipped roof clad
in machine tiles. The rear of it has five 6/6 sashes arranged
like the dots on the face of a gaming dice. One wall stack to
the east and west sides.
In the centre of the rear aspect is a tall 2-storey C19 block
with a canted end. 6/6 sashes. This block runs into the rear
of the Gothick front element where it appears as a hipped roof
over it with a Y-tracery sash under the eaves to the right and
left.
A further C19 brick 2-storey wing diverts to the north-east in
3 bays: sashes and 2 stacks on the hipped roof.
