Large house, once known as the Manor House. Mid C19. Painted
stucco with painted rusticated stone quoins and dressings,
shallow-pitched slate roof with deep bracketed eaves to front
and returns, very large painted rendered stacks to pediments
and front slope. Square plan with C20 rear block.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys; symmetrical 7-window range of 2:3:2
fenestration with outer pedimented ranges. Moulded architraves
to 6/6-pane sash windows. An enclosed Tuscan porch with
semicircular arches with keystones to recesses in the returns
and front which has a large fanlight, probably C20, over C20
double doors. The 2 outer bays are stepped forward under
pediments; that to the right has blind windows.
The front and garden facade (right return) are spanned by a
cornice over a deep lintel string course, a moulded sill
course and plinth. 1st-floor windows have panelled aprons
flanked by pilasters between the sill course and the cornice
to the ground floor, which coincides with that of the porch.
The bay to the left has a late C19 single-storey rectangular
bay with paired 6/1-pane sash windows, cornice and blocking
course. 3 central 1st-floor windows are 6/6-pane sashes with
low late C19 cast-iron Gothic balustrades; a similar window is
inside left, that to the far left has closed louvred shutters.
The 3-bay right return garden front has a cast-iron arcaded
verandah with a glazed roof. The stacks to the pediments have
heavy moulded cornices to the bases, paired shafts with heavy
modillion-type cornices and square cream chimney pots. Other
stacks have been repaired without mouldings.
INTERIOR: not inspected but said to retain some ornamental
plasterwork.
