Description

The Kennels is a house built in 1896, originally serving as the kennels for the Eaton Estate. It is an L-shaped, two-storey, three-bay structure made of hard red brick, featuring a slightly jettied upper storey and grey slate roofs with red tile ridges. The walls are decorated with blue diapering, and the shaped gables have red terracotta copings. There are two chimneys with circular spiral-moulded flues. The windows are iron casements, with leaded glazing surviving in the upper panes, set in mullioned openings made of moulded brick with ogee heads. A small modern window is present in the east gable. The entrance features a framed, braced, and boarded door with leaded glazing in small top panels. The interior does not contain any features of special interest.
