Description

Sir William's House is a house built in 1743, with 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of red brick and features a pantile roof with brick coped and tumbled gables and gable stacks. The house has two storeys and a three-bay front, which includes a plinth, a first-floor band, and a second-floor eaves band that continues across the return walls. The central doorway has an overlight, a panelled door, and a pendant ashlar keystone inscribed with "W.M. 1743". The doorway is flanked by single glazing bar sashes, and there are three glazing bar sashes above. All openings have segmental heads.
