Description
Durham House is a late 18th-century house located on the north side of High Row in Gainford. The building features roughcast and painted masonry with a graduated green slate roof and ashlar stacks. It is two stories high with a three-bay front that includes a low plinth and raised, chamfered quoins on the right side.
On the ground floor, there is a continuous sill band and a central doorcase with a fluted frieze and angle paterae, which contains a 20th-century door set within a shouldered architrave. Flanking this door are renewed two-pane sash windows in raised surrounds. The first floor also has renewed two-pane sash windows, with the central window set in an eared architrave and the flanking windows in raised surrounds.
The moderately-pitched roof features coped gables with shaped kneelers and two corniced gable stacks. At the rear of the house, there is a 12-pane staircase window with an intersecting-tracery head.
