Description
Stone House is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of coursed rubble stone, featuring quoins and stone dressings, and has a Collyweston slate roof with a moulded stone ridge and end stacks. The building has stone coped gables and is 1½ to 2 storeys high, with four stone mullion windows that have hood moulds. From left to right, the windows include a 4-light window, a 2-light diamond lattice window, the upper part of a 5-light canted bay window that extends two storeys, and another 4-light window. The last three windows are set in stone gabled dormers, with one window located just below the eaves. The canted bay has a hipped roof with a small trefoil window above it.
On the ground floor, from left to right, there is a 4-light window, a moulded stone doorway with a door and overlight, a 5-light mullion and transom two-storey bay window (with diamond lattice), and a similar 5-light one-storey bay window (without diamond lattice) that has a hipped roof. A slate sundial is positioned above the door. At the left end of the house, there are a pair of stone gate piers topped with carved heraldic birds. There is also a two-storey wing at the rear, which is mainly from the 19th century. Inside, the house features a fireplace with a 4-centred arch and a smaller stone fireplace from the later 17th century set within it, as well as a restored arched-braced collar truss.
