House. Probably 1834 by George Webster. Roughcast with
limestone dressings and slate roof. Built in a cottage ornee
style with Gothick detailing.
2 storeys and 4 bays. Facade has overhanging eaves carried on
timber brackets with pendant bosses, and gables with pierced
and carved barge-boards. The windows are timber casements with
leaded glazing, pointed heads to the lights, and transoms to
those on the ground floor. The 1st and 2nd bays have square
bay windows of 3 lights, the left-hand one with a hipped slate
roof with a pierced timber valance with pendants, and the
right-hand one with a cornice with brattishing. The left-hand
window on the 1st floor has an opening with trefoiled head
below a gable. Above the 3rd bay there is also a gable and the
1st-floor window is of 3 stepped lights. The open gabled
timber porch, also in the 3rd bay, is carried on 4 columns
forming a screen of a central Tudor arch flanked by pointed
arches. The barge-boards are plain. The chimneys, on the
gables and between the 1st and 2nd bays, have caps with
clustered octagonal shafts.
INTERIOR: the ground floor has panelled window reveals, doors
of raised and fielded panels, and a staircase which has a
closed string, slim turned balusters, and an octagonal newel.
Above a doorway under the stairs, leading to the rear wing, is
a glazed Gothic screen. The fireplace surrounds were renewed
in the mid C20.
