Description
Kendal House is a house, now used as offices, built around 1820 with extensions added in 1895. The building is rendered over brick and features a Welsh slate roof. It has two storeys and a square plan, with later wings added to the rear. The entrance front has a three-window range with a recessed central bay that contains the entrance, which features a door with renewed side lights in a porch supported by Ionic columns. Above the doorway is a 12-pane sash window, and the flanking windows on each floor are tripartite sashes. The eaves have a strong overhang. The garden-facing return elevation includes a central full-height bow window with 12-pane sashes on the first floor and French windows on the ground floor. The lower rear wings, which are parallel and gabled, were added in 1895. The interior was likely extensively remodeled in 1895, with at least the staircase dating from that period.
