Description
Lambert House is a late 19th-century building located on Sheriff Highway. It features a room at the south-west corner constructed from fragments of medieval masonry. This includes a chimneypiece made from various pieces of moulded cornice, which has a dog-tooth frieze and is topped by a corbel head, likely from the 12th century. The chimneypiece is flanked by two ogee-gabled and crocketed pinnacles, probably from the 15th century.
There is a cusped niche with an ogee head, two masks serving as label stops, and an acanthus finial. The door has a moulded four-centred arch and a nail-head cornice, with two grotesque heads positioned below. A colonette with a stiff-leaf capital, presumably from the 13th century, is also present. The building includes a 15th-century mullioned window with a moulded arch inset, and a fragment of a glazed quatrefoiled balustrade used as a window, featuring a grotesque head as one label stop.
Additionally, there is a segmental moulded arch, likely from the 15th century, leading to a bay, adorned with animal-head label stops. A straight-headed mullioned window with cusped two-centred arched tracery, also presumably from the 15th century, has a hood mould ending in foliage finials, likely from the 14th century. The exterior displays the top of a crocketed gablet with a finial, probably from the 14th century, at the south-west corner.
