Ivy House

Ivy House is a house, likely originating in the 17th century with substantial alterations in the early 18th century and further changes in the early to mid-19th century. The left bay may be of 17th century origin, but has been altered, raised, and re-roofed. The two bays to the right are probably early 18th century with early to mid-19th century alterations. The construction is of coursed limestone rubble, with the road-facing elevation refaced in 19th-century ashlar. The roofs are covered with Collyweston slate, hipped at the road end. The house features ashlar chimneys with ovolo-moulded cornices, one to the left gable and another between the right bays. It is positioned at a right angle to the road.

The building is two storeys high, with the taller right bays also containing an attic. There are three bays in total. The end facing the road has 19th-century, two-light wooden casement windows with flat stone arches, and a hipped dormer. The left side of the right bays features similar casements within bonded limestone surrounds, a narrow blocked window in the centre of the first floor, and two hipped dormers. All dormers have paired wooden casement windows. A four-panelled door is set within a chamfered stone surround on the left. The left bay has paired wooden casements and a single light on each floor, as well as a 20th-century door within a 17th-century moulded and stopped limestone surround. A blocked single light with an ovolo-moulded stone surround in the centre of the rear wall of the taller block is another feature from the 17th or early 18th century. Inside, a partition made of re-used timber studs separates the different blocks.
