Description
This is a house dating to around 1870, built for the Grant-Thorold estate. It was later altered in the late 20th century. The house is constructed of red brick, with a colour coating on the original section, and has a pantile roof. Additions made in a matching style are also present. It is designed in a 17th-century Dutch style.
The property has a T-shaped plan, with an original southern section comprising two rooms and a central stack. There are porch-like additions at the gable ends, with the eastern one extended in the 20th century. A 20th-century kitchen wing was added to the rear.
The south front has a single storey and an attic, featuring two windows. A chamfered plinth is visible. The south side of the main range features a pair of three-light windows with glazing bars set in chamfered reveals with sills beneath segmental brick arches. Porches are situated on the left and right gable ends, each with segmental-arched openings, chamfered reveals, a diamond-shaped stone tablet with a cross-slit above, and a pointed arched gable featuring moulded brick kneelers, an ovolo-moulded cornice, and coping. The entrance to the right-hand (eastern) porch is blind, while the left-hand porch has an inserted window with glazing bars. The gables of the main range have two-light attic windows with glazing bars in chamfered reveals, set beneath segmental pointed brick arches, together with shaped gables featuring moulded brick cornices and coping. A central corniced stack has three octagonal shafts.
The interior was not inspected during the listing process.
The house is one of a group built for Alexander Grant-Thorold of Weelsby Old Hall, designed to complement the style of nearby Clee Hall Farmhouse.
