Ewood Court

Ewood Court is a house built in 1878 that has been divided into three dwellings. It is constructed from dressed stone and features a stone slate roof. The building is 2½ storeys tall and has an H-plan layout. The south front displays an E-shaped, five-bay symmetrical facade (ABCBA), with projecting wings and a central full-height porch. This structure is a good example of Vernacular Revival architecture.

The building has a plinth and a continuous string course above the ground floor windows. All windows are double-chamfered, mullioned, and transomed, consisting of six lights on each floor and in each bay. The first-floor windows have hoodmoulds with decorative label stops, while the attic gable windows feature six lights with a raised arched central light. The porch is adorned with an ogee lintel, moulded impost, and a moulded surround with decorative stops. Above the porch, there is an 8-light window topped by a circular window at the apex. The eaves have a band with moulded gutter brackets, and all gables are coped with kneelers and finials. There are two stacks at the junction of the wings.

The return side of the building has a three-bay layout with a central projecting porch that is 2½ storeys tall, featuring raised rusticated quoins and a doorway with a Tudor arched lintel and impost. Flanking this are casement windows with raised plain stone surrounds, and an arched light at the apex has a raised keystone and impost. The rear of the building has similar projecting wings connected by a wall that includes a semi-circular arched entrance with an impost and tall ball finials leading to the inner courtyard. On either side, there are single-storey gabled service rooms. The central range has four bays of cross-windows on either side of a central stair window, which is topped by a trefoil inscribed with "T R". To the right of the service block, there is a doorway inscribed "1 8 7 8" with an ogee lintel, marking an early house on the site from 1656.
