Description

The Dower House is a house dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar with a slate roof. The house is two storeys high. The front facade features two two-storey canted bay windows, and a central first-floor window with plain ashlar reveals. All windows are either sash windows with glazing bars or fixed windows with glazing bars, and have sill bands. A moulded band runs above the first-floor windows, followed by a cornice with a blocking course. Two urns sit above each projecting bay, with a further urn at each end of the facade. The central doorway has an architrave, console brackets, and a moulded pediment. Chimneys are located at the ends of the building. At the rear, there are two three-light mullioned windows; the ground-floor window is of 17th-century style, while the first-floor window is of 18th-century style. This building holds group value and contributes to the character of its setting.
