Description
The Waren House is a late 18th-century house built of random whinstone rubble with sandstone dressings, and it has a Scottish slate roof. It is five bays wide and two storeys high, with an attic level. A flight of three steps leads to a 20th-century front door with an overlight, set within a raised surround. The ground floor has nine-pane sash windows in raised surrounds, while the first floor has twelve-pane sashes, also in raised surrounds. The steeply-pitched roof has kneelers and splayed coping, and it incorporates two early 20th-century dormers. Large, corniced brick end stacks are present. Irregular additions extend to the rear of the property. Notable features include a round-headed stair window with intersecting glazing bars, and two early 19th-century tripartite windows.
Inside, the house has a spacious three-storey open-well staircase with stick balusters and turned newels. Several early 19th-century fireplaces feature cushion-moulded surrounds and paterae, along with cast-iron Victorian grates. Original six-panel doors and shutters remain, and there is panelling in the entrance hall and bar, claimed to be from the Olympic, a sister ship to the Titanic.
