Hetton House

Hetton House is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with an older core and a 19th-century range to the right. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a Welsh slate roof. The building has a central staircase plan, is two rooms deep, and stands two storeys tall with an attic. The five-bay facade includes twelve-pane sash windows set within architraves. The entrance door is adorned with an eared architrave, a pulvinated frieze, and a cornice. The house has rusticated quoins and a stone-coped gabled roof with kneelers. There are three hipped dormers, with tripartite dormers on the left and right and a single light in the centre. The gable ends have stacks with stone bases transitioning to brick, featuring modillions. The rear displays older masonry. An arched staircase window has flat imposts, a keystone, and thick glazing bars.

Inside, the house contains several mid-18th-century panelled rooms with modillion cornices, particularly notable in the hall, the sitting room—which has an ornamented niche—and the green room, where the fireplace is flanked by room-height Ionic columns and elaborate niches. The fireplace here has a plain design with bolection moulding. A striking mid-18th-century staircase features two alternately twisted and fluted balusters per tread and a moulded handrail.
