Cornhill House
GV II
House, now shops. C18, refronted c1810.
MATERIALS: Ham Hill stone ashlar, with coursed rubble to rest;
double-pitch roof, hipped slate to the front and tile to the
rear with stepped stone coping; brick stacks to gable ends and
ridge.
PLAN: double-depth plan with lower C18 gabled rear range.
EXTERIOR: Regency style. 2 storeys; 3-window range. A cornice
and blocking course spans the facade and the returns. The
slightly projecting outer bays have 3/3-pane sashes to the
second-floor, and 6/6-panes to the first-floor. The second
floor of the central bay has a 3/3-pane sash, flanked by ones
of 2/2-panes; below this is a shallow first-floor bow-window
of a 6/6-pane-tripartite sash, resting on a long balcony with
Regency-style iron-work, flanked by 6/6-pane sashes and a
continuous cill-band; the corners of the balcony were
supported by Tuscan-style columns, only the damaged left-hand
one remains; the centre is supported by a canted bay shop
window. To the far corners of the ground floor are traces of
banded rustication with a platband to the top which continues
along the returns.
The ground-floor of the left return has a former 5-light
hollow-moulded stone-mullioned window, now altered, with an
inserted vent; the first-floor has a labelled hoodmould over a
C20 casement.
The rear range is lower and older, of squared coursed rubble
with 6/6-pane tripartite sashes under wooden lintels, to the
left.
INTERIOR: the ground-floor is altered. The upper floors are
essentially early C19 in style with late C19 alterations. The
main first-floor room has a late C19 white marble fireplace
and stiff-leaf embellishments to a reeded cornice, and reeded
panels to a 6-panel door. To the left of the second-floor is a
mid C19 register hob-grate. The rear range is altered.
