Description
Stanton House is a house dating from around 1800, with a late 19th-century conservatory attached. It is constructed of brick with a stucco front, stone dressings, and has a hipped slate roof, featuring four rendered and coped stacks. The house is arranged over two storeys and has four bays, with a square plan.
The south elevation has a rendered plinth, rusticated ground floor, a first-floor band, an enriched eaves cornice, and a plain coped parapet. A central portico with square piers and a flat coped parapet fronts the house, leading to a 19th-century half-glazed door, flanked by lights, and a triple overlight. Above the door is a sash window with a moulded eared architrave. Shallow segmental bay windows are located on either side, each flanked by fluted pilasters, with margin light glazing bar sashes. Those to the first floor have moulded eared architraves. To the right is a two-storey service wing featuring a sash window on each floor.
The north side has a partial granite rubble plinth, a central full-height glazing bar sash, and a smaller similar sash above, both with segmental heads. Shallow segmental bay windows extend on either side, each with margin light glazing bar sashes to both floors. Ground floor sashes have rubbed brick heads. The service wing to the left has a triple sash, and above, a margin light glazing bar sash, both with segmental heads. An entrance door and flanking small lean-to outbuildings are on the east side, with a glazing bar sash above the door set within a segmental head. A full-width cross-gabled conservatory, added in the late 19th century by Messenger of Loughborough, extends across the west side. This conservatory has patterned glazing bars in the upper lights and patterned crest and finials.
