Description
This is a late 18th-century house with alterations from the early and later 19th century. Constructed of pebble-dashed rubble stone with gritstone dressings, it has a concrete tile front and stone slates to the rear, topped with stone gable stacks. The house has a broadly L-shaped plan and extends over three storeys, with a two-storey wing attached. The front garden façade features a three-window arrangement. A central doorway is protected by a projecting gabled porch with a stone slate roof, and it has half-glazed double panel doors. To the left of the entrance is a two-storey wooden canted bay window with a flat lead roof and 2/2 and plain sash windows. To the right is a 2/2 sash window with a Tudor hoodmould, and a similar sash directly above. A central 2/2 sash window sits between the first and second floors. On the top floor, a single 2-light sliding sash with glazing bars and Tudor hoodmoulds are located on either side. The left return facade includes a single 2/2 sash window to each floor, while the rear wing has a single 3/6 sash window to each floor. The interior of the building has not been inspected. Historical records suggest the building was under construction in 1789 for Dr Norton.
