Description
Dial House is a house dated "JG 1747" (John Gee) on the lead rainwater head and "JG 1738" on the door lintel. It is constructed from hammer-dressed stone and features a graduated stone slate roof. The building has a projecting plinth, stone quoins, an eaves cornice, coped gables with kneelers, and gable stacks. It has a 2-bay double-depth plan with a gable porch, is two storeys high, and has a single-storey extension at the rear. On the ground floor, there are two 20th-century bow windows, while the first floor has two casement windows with square-cut surrounds. The porch on the left gable has a cavetto-moulded door surround and a coped gable with kneelers. The right gable features a large buttress-like structure and a timber mullion and transom stair window with original leaded panes. Inside, some timber-framed partition walls are still retained.
