Description
A late 18th-century house, now offices, with alterations from the late 19th century. The building is constructed of sandstone ashlar with slate roofs and follows a double-depth plan, featuring two rear extensions: a long, narrow one to the right and another with a three-sided termination to the left. It has two storeys and an attic above cellars, and comprises four bays beneath a wide moulded pediment. The windows are mostly sash windows with plain reveals and projecting sills. The two left-hand bays on the ground floor have been replaced by a square bay window containing two windows separated by a mullion, topped with a cornice and blocking course. A Diocletian window with Gothic glazing is set within the pediment. The doorway, located in the third bay, has a stone doorcase featuring engaged Tuscan columns and a triangular pediment. The door itself has six raised and fielded panels, along with an overlight. The rear wall incorporates a Diocletian window on the first floor, above a Venetian window. The interior was altered in the later 19th century and includes a rear stair hall with a staircase rising in three flights to a balustraded landing, featuring an open string and turned mahogany balusters.
