Description
Church House is a house built in 1682, with a rear extension and alterations, constructed of buff sandstone-dressed local red brick in irregular English bond, topped with grey slate roofs. The symmetrical front features two storeys plus attics, with attic windows located only in the end gables. A three-storey porch has one room on each side, and a basement behind the plinth includes two windows to the left of the porch. The original half-glazed door has been replaced and is set under a plain fanlight in a stone basket-arched opening. A plain projecting band is present at the first floor, while a flush band at the second floor carries a datestone carved with "JC/RSB/1682" and flush stone quoins.
The upper storeys of the porch have Gothick iron casements, while each storey of the wings features a twelve-pane 19th-century wooden casement. The window openings have slightly cambered gauged brick heads and plain stone cills. The right end gable includes a canted, hipped bay window with small panes on the lower storey, a three-light leaded casement on the upper storey, and a two-light leaded casement in the attic. The left gable has a two-light cast iron Gothick casement in the attic. A brick chimney is located on the rear slope of the roof, and a flight of curved stone steps leads to the door. There is a 19th-century extension of two storeys at the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
