Description
Cleatlam House is a house built in the late 18th century to early 19th century, with a mid-19th century addition on the right. The left section features hammer-dressed sandstone with dressed quoins and a sandstone flag roof topped with ashlar stacks. The right section is made of dressed sandstone, with a rendered ground floor and roughcast first floor, and has a Welsh slate roof with a brick stack.
The left section is two stories high and has three bays. The openings have flat surrounds, with a central part-glazed door that has six flush panels and a blind radial fanlight, along with five 12-pane sash windows. The moderately-pitched roof has coped gables with shaped kneelers and two corniced gable stacks.
The right section is also two stories and has three bays, but it features replaced windows within flat surrounds. The ground floor includes two 16-pane sashes and a 20th-century casement, while the first floor has an 8-pane sash flanked by two 16-pane sashes. The low-pitched roof has a coped right gable with a shaped kneeler and a rebuilt ridge stack.
At the rear of the older part, there are four 12-pane sashes and a round-arched staircase window with intersecting tracery in the head. There are detached outbuildings to the right and rear, but these are not of special interest.
