Description
This is a house located on Neston Road in Thornton Hough, built in 1893 by Douglas and Fordham. It features a timber-frame structure sitting on a stone base, with a brick stack and a tiled roof. The house is two storeys high and consists of two sets of two bays. The first floor juts out on decorative brackets, and there are decorated bressumer and bargeboards. The windows include leaded casements, with the ground floor having four-light windows with decorative heads, three-light windows on the first floor, and a two-light window in the attic. The gable is topped with a finial of a figure that supports a weather vane.
On the left side, there is a two-storey gabled porch attached to the second bay, while the first bay has a projecting lateral stack with a shaft featuring a zig-zag brick pattern in tall recesses and a single light window to the left. The porch has an entrance with a Tudor arch, carved spandrels, and an inscription that notes the date of construction, along with a plank door that has strap hinges.
