Description
Moorland Court is a house built in 1905, designed by Percy B. Hufton for local builder W.G. England. The building features painted and rendered brick with sandstone ashlar dressings and orange Barton tiled roofs. It has four tall battered chimney stacks, one of which has been reduced.
The house is two storeys high, with the main entrance on the west side featuring a segment-arched doorway adorned with three keystones and a segment arch hood. Flanking the entrance are single narrow windows. To the right, there is a circular window, and to the left, a similar window in a slightly projecting side section. Above the entrance, a three-light mullion window with metal casements is present.
On the south garden front, there is a central recess with a raised terrace beneath a projecting verandah supported by timber posts and balusters. This verandah covers a five-light and a four-light mullion window, both with metal casements. Above, there are two wide hipped dormer windows, each containing a four-light casement. To the left, a broad projecting gabled wing features a bay window with a seven-light cross casement window topped with a coped parapet, along with a two-light casement window and a small single light in the apex of the gable. To the right, a narrower gabled wing has a three-light casement window on the ground floor and a four-light window above, plus a small single light in the apex of the gable.
The north rear facade includes a broad gable cross wing on the right with a large two-light cross casement staircase window and a small single light in the apex. The central section has a five-light and a three-light mullion window, with similar lower windows above the eaves. To the left, a narrow cross wing features a four-light mullion window on each floor and a small light in the apex. The east front displays various mullion windows and an inserted 20th-century metal fire escape.
