Description
North House is a building from the later 18th century, originally formed from the north wing and former stables that are attached at right angles to the rear of Stormer Hill House. It is constructed of brick and has two storeys. The ground floor features a boarded door, one five-light window, and one four-light window, all with flat stone mullions and square panes. Above, there are two modern five-light windows and a segmental-headed sash window. The former outbuilding and loft in the return wing to the right were incorporated into the house in the 20th century, which includes a door leading up an external stair, two old two-light windows, and several modern windows.
