Description

Rokeby Grove is a house built in the second quarter of the 19th century. The front is made of squared stone with tooled-and-margined quoins and dressings, while the other sides are constructed from rubble. It has graduated Lakeland slate roofs, except for the west outshut, which features 20th-century hardrow tiles.

The house is two storeys high and has three bays, with the right bay set back. There is a first-floor band. The central entrance has a renewed door with a fanlight, set in a round arch with an archivolt, and is flanked by four-pane sash windows. On the first floor, there is a 12-pane sash window flanked by 16-pane sashes, all with slightly projecting sills. The right bay has a four-pane sash on the ground floor and a 16-pane sash on the first floor. The gables are coped and sit on moulded kneelers, with stepped and corniced stacks at the ends.

The left side of the house features a pent outshut with an 18-pane Yorkshire sash window. At the rear, there is a fielded-panel door beneath a 20-pane sash stair window, along with 16-pane sash windows.

Inside, there are fielded-panel doors and an open-well staircase with three stick balusters per tread, a moulded ramped handrail, and a curtail step. A small brick extension and an adjacent greenhouse at the east end are not considered of special interest.
