Description
Pleasant Place House is an early 19th-century house located along the north side of Wapping in Haltwhistle. It is constructed of squared sandstone with ashlar dressings, featuring a stone-tiled roof and dressed stone chimney stacks. The house has three bays, with three storeys on the left side and two storeys on the right. Notable architectural details include quoins and a lintel band. The central entrance consists of a four-panel door set within a surround that has alternating jambs and a corniced lintel. The windows are replaced 12-pane sashes in raised tooled surrounds. The roof is low-pitched and hipped, with two lateral stacks at the rear. There is a set-back, two-storey bay on the right side under a hipped roof. Additionally, there is a single-storey rendered wing at right angles to the front of the left bay, which is not considered of special interest.
