Description
Well Bank House is a house dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century. It is constructed of roughcast rubble with a pantiled roof and a brick chimney stack. The building has two storeys and features two windows. On the right side, there are flush quoins. The central entrance has a boarded door with a cambered lintel. To the left of the door is a replaced 4-pane sash window, and to the right is a 16-pane horizontal-sliding sash window with a segmental head. Above, there are two 20-pane horizontal-sliding sash windows. The roof is steeply pitched with a raised right verge, and there is a rebuilt chimney stack at the right end, along with an external chimney on the right return. A one-storey rear outshut has been added. Inside, there is a two-flight cut-string dogleg staircase and a 19th-century iron range flanked by panelled cupboards in the sitting room.
