Description

Charlton House is a circa 1866 Victorian Gothic building, possibly designed by Alfred Waterhouse. It is constructed of red brick with stone lintels. The house is two and a half storeys high. The main facade features three sash windows, some with gothic heads; the side windows are two-light, and the left-hand window is set within a steeply gabled section with arch-braced bargeboards. The central window is positioned beneath a tall pyramidal roof that is topped with a weather vane, and the ground floor window serves as the entrance. A similar two-bay facade is present on the left-hand return, both featuring slate roofs. Two standard lamps, in the form of columns with globe lanterns and made of cast iron, are situated adjacent to the south-west and south-east corners.
