Description
Cawood House is a house built in 1748, constructed from sandstone rubble with a slate roof. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring two bays. The windows consist of three lights and have mullions with a slight chamfer. The door, located between the bays, has a cyma-moulded surround and a lintel inscribed with 'ISE 1748'. Above the door is a hood made of two pitched stone flags. The left gable has a coping with a footstone, and there are end chimneys. To the right, there is a gabled bay with mullioned windows, which is an early 20th-century conversion that is in keeping with the original style. Inside, the right-hand room features a moulded shouldered fireplace. The oak staircase has a closed string, a moulded handrail, and turned balusters typical of the 18th century, although it has been reconstructed in the 20th century.
