Description
Eagley Bank is a small mansion, possibly originally dating to the late 18th century. It was extended and remodelled in 1854, with further extensions and alterations around 1920. The house is constructed of ashlar stone with a slate roof.
The front of the house has three windows and a central entrance. The entrance is accessed via an 8-panelled door set within a Tuscan architrave. The door is topped by a wrought-iron fanlight. To the right of the door is a canted bay window, and sash windows with flat arches are located to the left and above. A moulded eaves cornice runs along the top of the house, and end wall stacks are present. A single-storey canted extension, dating to around 1920, is set back on the right-hand return, built at an angle with a rear wing. This wing has leaded fanlights above paired 4-pane sash windows. A hipped roofed wing extends further, with a conservatory built against its south elevation. The left-hand return features a curved angle, and two phased lean-to wings. The right-hand wing has 16-pane sash windows on each floor, and the left-hand wing has paired 2-pane sashes to the ground floor and a 4-pane sash window above. The house is linked by slate-hung construction to Eagley Bank Cottage, which was originally built as a wing of the main house. Eagley Bank Cottage has watershot stonework with a slate roof, a hipped roofed porch with a doorway in its side wall and a further doorway and window to its right. It has two windows above. The rear elevation features paired gables with an embattled parapet to a shallow extension, likely containing stairs, and is dated 1854. A hipped roofed wing extends to the east of the main house, beyond which a single-storey range (open to the north, with the date 1865 cast into a cast-iron lintel) connects it to the stable block and coach house. This range has paired stilted arched windows on either side of a central pediment carrying an Italianate clock tower. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
