Description
Park House and The Cottage are a late 18th-century and mid-19th century house, originally a single building, now divided into two separate residences. The building is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings and has concrete tile and slate roofs. It features two brick coped gable stacks and two ridge stacks. There are dentillated eaves and coped gables. The main two-storey, three-window front has 20th-century wooden cross casement windows, with the central window altered. A centrally located altered round arched doorway features a plain fanlight and a 20th-century half-glazed door, flanked by larger cross casements; all windows have shaped lintels and keystones. A single-storey addition is located to one side, and the left gable displays a 20th-century garret window. The rear wing, also two storeys high, has two 2-light windows on the left at the upper level, with two larger 3-light windows below, all with segmental heads and 19th-century diamond pane glazing. A 19th-century chamfered stone doorcase with a cornice sits centrally, leading to a double door. A lean-to projection to the right has a reglazed ground floor window with a cornice. A similar ground floor window is found on the return angle.
