Cromwell House

Cromwell House is a house, now used as offices, dating to circa 1700, with a 19th-century alteration and extension. The front gable was rebuilt around 1974, and the building was renovated circa 1980. The front is of orange-brown brick in Flemish bond, set on a brick plinth with a chamfered stone band. It features stone dressings and a moulded timber cornice, with a pantile roof and brick stacks.

The building is two storeys and has attics; the front has five bays and is set beneath a wide pedimental gable. Angle pilasters are present, with moulded stone capitals. The central door has six recessed panels and a divided overlight, set within an eared bolection moulded architrave with a pulvinated brick frieze and a moulded cornice hood. The ground and first floor windows are 12-pane sashes, with three 2x6-pane casement windows to the gable; each end of the gable has an oeil-de-boeuf window in a keyed brick surround. Windows have moulded stone sills, some of which have been renewed. The ground and attic windows have flat arches of gauged brick beneath moulded stone cornices. These windows are set vertically in shallow raised brick panels, interrupted at the base of the gable by a prominent cornice which breaks across each panel.

The interior was not inspected, but records indicate an open string staircase with slender turned balusters and a heavy, moulded, ramped-up handrail.
