Description

Park House is a villa, now a residential home, built in the mid-19th century and extended in the late 19th century. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar with a slate roof. The building has a double-depth, double-fronted plan with a rear extension on the right side. It stands two storeys tall, with a cellar and attic, and features three symmetrical windows. The façade includes a plinth, a plain frieze, a moulded cornice with a blocking course, and coped gables. The central doorway is framed by an Ionic architrave and has a panelled door with an overlight featuring coloured margin panes. The ground floor windows are sashed without glazing bars, while the upper windows have altered glazing and plain surrounds. There are gable chimneys, and set-back single-window wings at both ends, with the right wing being very narrow. This wing has a tall window on each floor at the front and large three-light mullioned windows on the side, all adorned with enriched architraves. Inside, the villa features moulded plaster cornices with an egg-and-dart design and a doglegged staircase with ornate foliated cast-iron balusters. Park House forms a group with No.71 to the right and No.75 nearby.
