Description

Park End House is a mid- to late 19th-century house located in Didsbury, Manchester. Built with red brick in Flemish bond, it features sandstone dressings and a slate roof. The house follows a double-depth, double-fronted plan, presenting a symmetrical façade of five bays, with the central bay projecting slightly. A stone plinth, pilastered corners, and prominent bracketed eaves are notable features. A central doorway, approached by five steps, is round-headed and has double doors with a plain fanlight, all set within a stone surround with prominent imposts and a keystone. The windows are sash windows without glazing bars; the ground floor windows have stone aprons, and those in the outer bays on the first floor are linked by sill bands. Gable chimneys are present. The rear of the house and its interior were not inspected at the time of listing.
