Description
Barrow House is a house located in Barrow upon Humber, dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It features an adjoining coach-house that was raised to two storeys and incorporated into the house in the later 19th century. The building is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and has pantile roofs. The main structure is L-shaped, with a central entrance hall that has two rooms facing south and west. The west side includes the coach-house extension on the left and an outshut at the rear.
The main front faces south and has two storeys with three symmetrical bays. It features a Doric doorcase with reeded pilasters and brackets that support a dentilled broken pediment. The entrance has a six-fielded-panel door, with the top two panels glazed, and a radial fanlight set in an arched panelled reveal. The windows are 16-pane sashes with channelled and keyed stucco segmental arches and projecting cills. The eaves cornice is stepped and cogged, and the roof is hipped with an end stack on the right.
The left side of the building forms the west front facing Thornton Street, which has a recessed six-fielded-panel door and a three-pane overlight beneath a channelled and keyed stucco segmental arch. It also features 16-pane sashes and a brick eaves cornice similar to the south front. There is a low two-storey extension to the left with a similar first-floor window, wooden eaves board, and hipped roof. The left return has a blocked segmental carriage arch with a 20th-century casement and a first-floor 16-pane sash.
Inside, the entrance halls and stair hall have a beaded-panel dado and moulded cornices. The open well staircase features a ramped and wreathed handrail with plain balusters. The main rooms have moulded ceiling cornices, and throughout the house, there are six-beaded-panel doors in panelled reveals and architraves.
