Bridge End House With Adjacent Coach House And Yard Walls

Bridge End House, with its adjacent coach house and yard walls, dates primarily to the early 19th century, although it incorporates an earlier 18th-century house as a rear wing. The front and yard walls are built of squared, tooled stone, with roughly-squared or rubble stone used elsewhere. The front block has C20 hardrow tile roofing, the coach house has Welsh slate, and the rear wing has graduated stone slates. Brick stacks are found on the front blocks and the rear wing.

The main house is two stories and three bays. A six-panel door with a patterned overlight sits within a stone surround, positioned between the right bays. To the left are two canted bays resting on stone bases, with 12-pane sashes flanked by 8-pane sashes. Other windows are 12-pane sashes within stone surrounds. Coped gables sit atop moulded kneelers, with end stacks. A tall, flat-coped yard wall runs to the left, incorporating boarded double gates between square-pyramid-capped piers at the left end. The two-bay coach house behind has boarded double doors under an elliptical arch, a blocked doorway, and a boarded loft door with a four-pane overlight; it also has a banded ridge stack.

An irregular right return incorporates the gable end of an older house that has since been demolished. The rear wing, raised to three stories in the early 19th century, features a central chamfered doorway flanked by 12-pane sashes in tooled surrounds. Above are older windows with stone surrounds, one of which is mullioned. A coped gable with kneelers is also present. A later one-story bay extends to the right, displaying a brick end stack, and 12-pane sashes in tooled surrounds on its south side.

Inside the rear wing, fielded-panel doors, a dog-leg cut-string staircase with stick balusters, pierced newels, and a moulded ramped handrail are notable features.

Historically, the property served as the manager's house for Ullathorne Mill, which has since been demolished.
