Kerridge End House

Kerridge End House is a house dating from 1837, built for John Mellor. It is constructed from coursed squared buff sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, set beneath a half-hipped Welsh slate roof, and features four stone chimneys. The building follows a double pile plan, meaning it has rooms arranged along two parallel lines.

The front of the house is symmetrical, with three bays arranged over two stories. The design includes a plinth, rusticated quoins, an ashlar band at the first floor level, and a projecting moulded cornice. The end bays have sixteen-pane sashes within flat, channelled heads. A rebated elliptical arched doorcase incorporates a fanlight with marginal lights and shaped iron glazing bars, leading to a four-panelled door framed by an Ionic architrave. The gables are shaped like trapeziums, with stone copings and contain windows with similarly shaped tops and radial glazing bars.

The design of the shaped gables and the Ionic architrave were likely inspired by Park Green House on Sunderland Street in Macclesfield.
