Description
Mount House is a house built around 1840, constructed of brick with painted stone dressings and a slate roof. The building is two storeys high and features one bay, with a doorway located on the left side. It is part of a terrace and adjoins No. 17 Mount Parade. A three-storey wing projects at a 45-degree angle to the left, which has one bay facing south and a one-bay end wall facing west. Most windows are 20th-century top-hung casements with glazing bars, designed to imitate sash windows, and the ground and first-floor windows have louvred shutters, except for the ground-floor window on the west wall, which is a casement without shutters. The first-floor windows are set above a sill band. The doorway features a pilaster doorcase with panelled reveals and a mutule cornice, with a four-panel door and an overlight with margin panes. The gutters are supported by paired rectangular brackets. There is a shared ridge chimney on the right side of the main house and another chimney on the rear wall of the wing. The interior has not been inspected.
