Description

Wollaton House is a house dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, with 20th-century additions. It is constructed of stucco and painted brick, topped with slate roofs. The building features two gable and two ridge stacks that are rendered, a plinth, and a gutter supported by wooden brackets. The house has two storeys and three bays. The windows are glazing bar sashes, mostly original. The central doorcase has a cornice on brackets, a fielded six-panel door, and a traceried overlight, with a single sash window above. To the right, there is a two-storey canted bay window with three sashes, followed by an inserted fire escape door. To the left, a similar single-storey bay window has a sash above it. The left gable features a two-storey canted wooden bay window with seven sashes, flanked by a window on each floor. The rear of the house includes a mid-20th-century flat-roofed addition and irregular fenestration, including a round-arched stair window. The service wing on the left side is two storeys high and has part of a stone plinth and dentillated eaves, along with a two-storey wooden porch in the return angle. Inside, there is a stairwell with a cornice that contains the original dogleg stair with a cut string and stick balusters. An elliptical archway features reeded pilasters, and there is a reeded doorcase with a fanlight. Other ground floor rooms have cornices and mid-19th-century fireplaces, and there is a half-glazed garden door with ogee-headed lights.
