Description

The Newbottle Working Men's Club is an early 18th-century house located on Front Street in Houghton-le-Spring. It is constructed of brick with stone dressings and features a roof made of Welsh slate with red ridge tiles. The building has three storeys and five windows, along with one additional window. The central entrance consists of a double door set within a pedimented doorcase, which is brought forward by a modern porch. The sash windows, which include glazing bars, are framed by architraves, and the building has raised quoins with capitals that support an eaves entablature and a corniced roof parapet. There are similar windows in the lower bay to the left. The high-pitched double-span roof is topped with four brick chimneys at the ends. Inside, the club retains some original architraves, and the well staircase features a balustrade that is boarded-in beneath a broad, serpentine-section handrail.
