Description

Somerville House and the attached outbuilding are located on Main Street in Findern. The house dates from the mid-18th century, while the outbuilding is from the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a plain tile roof, with a brick gable stack and another stack positioned just off the ridge. The building has a dentil cornice and is two storeys high, presenting a symmetrical north elevation with five bays.

The central porch, added in the 19th century, is made of brick and includes an inner doorway with a wedge brick lintel, a 20th-century door, and an overlight. On either side of the porch, there are two glazing bar sash windows with wedge lintels, and five similar windows are located above on the upper floor. A low 19th-century wall with iron railings runs along the front of the property.

Inside, there is an open string staircase featuring two turned balusters per tread, complemented by a moulded and ramped handrail. To the left of the house, there is a carriageway with a pitched tiled roof that connects to a brick barn topped with a Welsh slate roof. The barn has four tiers of blocked breathers on the north side, a window at half height with a door above it, and two windows located beneath the eaves.
