Description
Dial House is a house dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century, constructed from coursed limestone rubble with a pantile roof. The building has two storeys and features three sash windows, each with projecting stone cills and flat stone lintels. An oblong fanlight is located above the door in the first bay, and there is a sundial positioned between the first and second floor windows. The roof is steeply pitched and has a double-span design that is half hipped at the left rear. The front range includes two massive end chimney stacks, with the right one being square.
Inside, the house has a closed string well staircase that features three thick graduated barley-sugar balusters for every two treads, supporting a wide flat handrail, along with square-topped newel posts. The roof is reported to have pegged trusses and through purlins.
