Description
Town End House is a large building, now divided into flats, dating from the late 18th century and altered in the 20th century. It is constructed of coursed gritstone with thin courses and features a low-pitched slate roof that has stone coping at the gable ends, supported by kneelers, and shaped eaves brackets. The building has three storeys and three windows; the central window is a single light, while the outer windows have two lights, all with stone flat-faced mullions and plain surrounds. The windows are modern sash-style casements. The central doorway has a modern glazed door, and there are truncated stacks at either end.
At the rear, there is a narrow round-headed stair window above the entrance, with single- and two-light windows on the ground and first floors, and three-light windows on the top storey. The interior has not been inspected. The style and proportions of the building suggest it may have originally served an industrial purpose, as it is located on the site of the Springfield woollen mill. Recent thorough restoration may have obscured some original features.
