Redcroft and Fencegate and Adjoining Garden Wall

Redcroft and Fencegate are two houses built in 1895 by Edgar Wood, located on Middleton Rochdale Road. The buildings are constructed of brick, with the first floor rendered, featuring stone dressings and a clay tile roof. They consist of four bays and two storeys with attics, along with a rear wing. A dentilled band runs along the first floor.

The design includes canted two-storey bay windows in the first and fourth bays, with the fourth bay extending through the eaves and ending in a coped parapet. Each bay window features seven-light flat-faced stone mullion windows with leaded lights on both floors, and transoms on the ground floor. The door in the third bay has glazed panels, side lights, and an elliptical-arched head with brick and stone voussoirs. The second bay contains brick-mullioned windows with semi-elliptical lights above. The first floor has four and two-light mullioned windows, along with a six-light window in the gable that spans over the first and second bays, balanced by a gabled dormer window in the fourth bay. There are ridge and gable chimney stacks, and the design intentionally avoids symmetry, with the porch to Redcroft positioned on the left return. Brick-mullioned windows are also present on the sides and rear of the houses.

The adjoining garden wall features alternating sections of Portland stone and iron railings set on a rubble base, incorporating a gate portal with an ogee lintel. Redcroft served as Edgar Wood's home until around 1916.
