Chorcliffe House

Chorcliffe House is a large town house from the early 19th century that has been converted into flats. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with stone dressings and features a two-span slate roof. The building has one chimney at the left gable, two at the right gable, two on the front ridge, and one on the rear ridge. The house has a deep double-pile plan with six bays and stands three storeys tall, with a stone plinth and coping.

The third bay, which slightly projects forward, features a wide elliptical-headed doorway flanked by margin lights and supported by Doric demi-columns. This doorway has double doors, a triglyph-fluted frieze, and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars and two pierced bands. The second bay contains a service door, with a round-headed window and a square window on the same sill to the right. The remaining openings have sashed windows with glazing bars, stone sills, and stone heads that are splayed at the ground and first floors.

On the right return wall, there are three windows on each upper floor, mostly sashed with glazing bars. The rear of the building features a canted bay that rises to the full height of the third bay, with large sashed tripartite windows with glazing bars on the first two floors and sashed windows on three sides of the second floor. There is a doorway with a rectangular stone case in the fourth bay, and two stairlight windows above it—one Venetian and the other round-headed—both adorned with Gothick glazing bars in their heads. Other windows on this wall are also sashed with glazing bars. The interior includes an original staircase and some original fireplaces, but it has not been fully inspected.
