Description
This is a Neo-Georgian style house, built in 1903 by Everard and Pick for M H Pearson. It is now divided into flats. The house is constructed of brick with stone dressings and a Swithland slate roof. The north front features a full-height projecting porch with a stone segmental canopy above the entrance door and the date 1903 displayed above it. A service wing creates a courtyard, incorporating a former back door and twelve-light sash windows with flat arched brick heads and keystones. The eastern elevation has three bays, with a hipped roofed pavilion projecting from the ground floor on both the left and right sides. A canted bay is articulated with separate sash windows; eighteen lights to the ground floor and twelve lights above, all with segmentally arched brick heads and keystones. This pattern of fenestration is repeated throughout the building. The canted bay is capped with acorn-like urns. The roof is recessed behind a parapet. The south front is symmetrically arranged with four bays, including outer canted bays topped with urns. Paired sashes are located to the left of the central range, with a garden door recessed behind a small loggia or porch featuring a leaded canopy supported on angular fretted woodwork. The south front also has a parapet and recessed roof. Gable and axial stacks are present. Architectural plans, dated 20 February 1903, are held by the District Council.
