The Red House

The Red House is a house built in the early 19th century, with an extension added in the mid-19th century. There are traces of an earlier structure in the north wall. The building is made of pale red brick, with some granite rubble in the north wall. It features cogged brick eaves and a Welsh slate roof with brick chimneys. The main block is L-shaped, consisting of three storeys and three bays, with the right bay being gabled and projecting.

The gable end of the right bay has a three-storey canted bay window from the late 19th to early 20th century, which includes three-pane sash windows, moulded wooden cornices, and a hipped roof. The left side of this bay has three-pane sash windows with segmental heads on the lower storeys and a 20th-century paired barred wooden casement on the top floor. The centre bay features narrow three-pane sashes and a door, with the first-floor window having a segmental head. The left bay is an extension from around 1840, which has four-pane sashes and a 20th-century canted bay window on the ground floor.

There is a six-panelled door with a porch located in the angle between the right bays. The door has a reeded mid rail and a reeded surround with paterae. The wooden porch has a flat roof and a cornice supported by columns with moulded capitals and bases, which are likely re-used. The north wall shows evidence of earlier construction at ground floor level, featuring granite rubble walling and narrow blocked windows flanking a blocked doorway. These former openings have brick surrounds with depressed arched heads and are probably from the late 18th century. Inside the house, there are mid-19th-century marble fireplaces, with those in the left bay displaying reeded ornament.
