Description

Moorlyn is a mid-19th century house, later converted to offices, with 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of yellow brick with limestone ashlar dressings, and has a slate roof. The house is symmetrical, with two storeys plus attics and five bays. It features a storey band and a first-floor sill band. The outer bays have single-storey brick bows with curved sash windows lacking glazing bars, and with rounded upper corners. These bows have carved brackets to their cornices and are topped by iron railings. The first-floor windows are also sash windows without glazing bars. They have architraves with segmental heads and keystones, except for the central bay. The central bay has brick pilaster strips to the left and right, and a casement window with a round head, keystone, and moulded imposts. Above this, the deep bracketed eaves form an open pediment over a round-headed attic window. Two flat-roofed 20th-century dormers light the attic. The single-storey porch has pilaster strips with channelled rustication and foliated caps, and inner columns with similar caps. Cast-iron railings in an interlaced pattern sit above the bracketed cornice. The doorway has a moulded round head with an overlight, and the four-panelled doors have round-headed upper panels. Chimneys are located on the gables and behind the ridge. The interior has not been inspected.
