Description
Olympus House is a house dating from the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of stuccoed brick with stone dressings and features a Welsh slate roof along with two gabled brick chimneys. The building has a three-storey, four-bay front, with a stone plinth and rusticated quoins. The windows are 16-pane sashes with channelled flat stone heads that have raised keyblocks. In the second bay, there is a heavy detached unfluted Doric porch approached by four steps. Behind the porch is a simple wooden doorcase that includes a rectangular fanlight with radial glazing bars and a repaired six-panelled door.
