Walton Bank

This is an early 19th-century brick house located on Derby Road. Local tradition suggests that the house, along with a building in the rear yard, served as a prison, allegedly holding around 200 to 300 officers of the Napoleonic Army captured in approximately 1803 under General Rochambeau. The house is constructed of red brick with a double-span hipped slate roof. It has two storeys and five windows. The central three windows are sash windows with late 19th-century glazing bars. The outer windows are fixed with glazing bars and small, central opening casements. The ground-floor windows are round-arched. They are framed by painted stone architraves. A round-arched doorway is present, featuring a coved stucco frame and a segmental fanlight. A stucco eaves cornice tops the building. The rear has a studded door with an iron bar latch and small windows with plain stone architraves. These rear windows are fixed.
