Description
Stone House is a house built in the late 18th century, with 19th-century additions. It features colourwashed rubblestone walls with brick dressings and a roof that is partly covered with graded Swithland slate and partly with 20th-century slate. The house has two brick gable stacks and coped gables, along with a dentilled brick cornice.
The east front of the house has two storeys and three bays. The central doorway is framed by a pilastered doorcase with a dentilled cornice and a sloping hood, leading to a six-panel door. This doorway is flanked by single glazing bar sash windows with cambered arches. Above the doorway, there are two similar windows, all of which have 19th-century sashes.
To the right, there is a lower 19th-century single bay addition made of painted brick with a slate roof. The ground storey of this addition features a two-light sliding sash window with a cambered arch, while the upper storey has two small 20th-century casements.
