Killock House And Attached Range Of Outbuildings And Pump

Killock House is a former farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with some alterations made in the 20th century. The building is constructed of brick and stone, topped with roofs made of Swithland and Welsh slate. The roof is hipped at the north end and features a trip of gables on the south side, with two ridge stacks.

The north front has two storeys and five bays. An off-centre doorway is adorned with a wooden doorcase and a cornice hood, leading to a part-glazed six-panel door. To the right of the doorway is a three-light casement window, and to the left is a similar window followed by a single-light casement that occupies a blocked doorway, and then another three-light casement. Above, there are three three-light casements. All windows are 20th-century replacements with cement-rendered flat arches. Notably, there is diamond diaper-work in burnt headers across the front at the first floor level, which continues along the west wall and the south front, reappearing on the attic gables of the south front. The central gable features a heart shape, while the other two have diamond shapes.

The south front also has a Swithland slate main roof and Welsh slate attic gables. It consists of two storeys and an attic with four bays. The off-centre doorway here has a 20th-century part-glazed door with an over-light. To the left is a three-light casement with a wooden lintel, and to the right is a single-light casement followed by a two-light casement. Above, to the left, is a three-light casement, and to the right are two two-light casements. In the attic storey, there are three two-light casements, with the left and centre ones having wooden lintels and the right one featuring a flat arch. All other openings have gauged brick flat arches, and all casements are from the 20th century.

Attached to the east is a single-storey range of outbuildings, which includes a pump housed in a wooden case. Inside the house, the ground floor features moulded main beams with stops. There is panelling and a cornice in a first-floor bedroom that is reputed to date from around 1700. Several mud and stud partitions remain, and many of the floors across all storeys are made of Leicestershire cement. A slate sundial is mounted on the west wall of the house at first floor level.
