Ridgeway House Attached Boundary Wall and Gate Piers

Ridgeway House, built in the late 18th century and remodelled in the mid-19th century, features a boundary wall and gate piers. The house has been altered and refurbished in 1986. It is constructed from regularly coursed squared coal measures sandstone with ashlar dressings, projecting quoins, and coped gables with moulded kneelers, topped with 20th-century brick stacks. The roof is covered with stone slates and Welsh slates.

The house is three storeys high and has three bays, with stacked 19th-century glazing bar sashes that decrease in height from the ground to the second floor. There is a coved eaves cornice above a plain band that connects the second-floor window heads. The central doorway features a moulded stone surround with a pulvinated frieze, and it is enclosed by an open flat-roofed porch with an entablature and cornice supported by tapering octagonal columns. The entrance has a four-panelled door.

The rear elevation originally had two 18th-century two-light flush mullioned windows, which have been replaced with two 20th-century windows in a matching style. There is a low single-storey extension at the back. The attached boundary wall has moulded coping on a curved low section at the front, topped with cast iron spear-headed railings. The wall rises to 2.5 metres in height on the north side of the house and includes a side doorway with a plain surround and a planked door. To the north of the garden wall, there are a pair of octagonal stone gate piers with boldly projecting depressed pyramidal caps.
