Description

Raid House is a house dating from the early to late 18th century. It is constructed from hammer-dressed stone, mostly watershot, and features a graduated stone slate roof. The building is a two-bay, single-depth structure with three storeys and quoins. The front elevation is mostly blind, except for a door with a dressed surround and a timber porch, a blocked first-floor taking-in door, and a 20th-century window. On the second floor, there is a prominent 13-light recessed flat-faced stone mullion workshop window.

The rear of the house includes a central square-cut door surround and displays evidence of various construction phases. The earliest section on the right has double-chamfered stone mullion windows with two, three, and four lights, while the left side features recessed flat-faced mullion windows with five and six lights. The entire second floor, which is part of the later construction, has a large 17-light recessed flat-faced stone mullion window that includes king mullions and three blocked lights. The house is topped with two ridge chimney stacks.
