Description
Sundial House is a house dating from 1627, constructed of coursed rubble with a stone tiled roof. It has two storeys and a three-unit plan, featuring a left-hand bay that is a projecting coped gabled cross wing. This cross wing includes a ground floor three-light casement window with a chamfered timber lintel, and above it, there are two-light ovolo moulded mullions with hoodmoulds. The inner face of these windows also has ovolo moulded lights.
In the centre of the right-hand range, there is a doorway with a chamfered timber lintel. To the left of this doorway, a full-height canted bay has a corbelled gable that displays the date and initials WC, and it contains two three-light mullioned windows. To the right of the door, there is a three-light wood mullioned window with a chamfered timber lintel, and above it, another three-light ovolo moulded mullion. The house features a brick stack on the right-hand gable, with a stone base to the brick stack located to the left of the doorway, and paired stone stacks at the angle of the cross wing and the main range.
