Description
This is a mid-18th century house with alterations from the 19th century. It is built of pale brown brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with red brick detailing. The front has a plain tile roof, while the rear and outshuts have pantiles. The house is three storeys high with three windows on the first floor. A two-storey outshut is on the left, and a central, 19th-century stair turret is at the rear, with an infill section to its right.
The main entrance features a 19th-century six-panel door set within a pedimented portico. This portico has engaged pilasters and freestanding slender columns that support a frieze and dentil cornice, which extends across canted bays on either side. These canted bays include small-paned sash windows. The tile band across the first floor extends to the left gable. The first floor has sash windows with glazing bars in flush wood architraves, set under flat arches of red brick. A three-course band runs around the left gable. The second floor has unequally-hung nine-pane sashes to the outer bays and a mock nine-pane sash in the centre bay. A modillion eaves band runs along the top. Brick end stacks are present. The left gable has sash windows with glazing bars under blocked elliptical arches.
