Description

Field House is a house that was formerly a Presbyterian Manse, built around 1830-1840. It is constructed from squared tooled stone with tooled-and-margined ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof, designed in the Tudor style.

The east elevation has two storeys and is divided into two sections. The left part has three bays, with a narrow centre that is recessed between two gabled bays, the right bay projecting slightly. It has a chamfered plinth and a string course that links the hoodmoulds of the ground floor windows. The central entrance is an old half-glazed door with a fanlight, set under a 4-centred arch, with a 12-pane sash window above. There are similar windows in the flanking bays, with the upper windows having separate hoodmoulds. The gables are topped with moulded coping, kneelers, and finials. Each gabled bay has a slender stepped-and-corniced stack on the right return, and a larger stack with a quadripartite shaft on the roof ridge behind the centre.

The right return features narrow 8-pane sash windows and a projecting stack. The right part of the house is set back and has two bays, with a chamfered plinth and moulded corbels at the eaves. There is an extruded porch on the left with a blocked Tudor-arched doorway, a cornice on moulded corbels, and a small casement on the right return. The ground floor has 12-pane sash windows, with the one on the ground floor having a hoodmould. The right gable is coped on moulded kneelers and has a stepped-and-corniced end stack that is corbelled out.

The south elevation features a lower hoodmould string and shows a projecting gabled left bay with similar fenestration. All openings have chamfered surrounds, and the windows have slightly projecting sills.

Inside, the doors have two rows of three upright panels, with folding panelled shutters and moulded cornices. There is a dogleg stair with stick balusters, a moulded handrail, and newels.

Field House was formerly known as Greenville.
