10 and 12, Church Street

This building began as a single house, likely around 1700, and was later remodelled around 1820-1840 and altered in the late 20th century. It is now divided into two separate houses at 10 and 12 Church Street. The construction features coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings, topped with a steeply pitched pantile roof. There are two chimneys, one at the front and one along the ridge, both with brick bases and rendered, square, double flues. The original building was a single storey with attics, and features a three-window front. It has two windows with stone surrounds and chamfered mullions, with leaded glazing. A door is located to the left, with three 19th-century timber-framed dormers above, each with shaped brackets, wooden finials, two-light leaded casements, and wooden mullions. The right gable has a 20th-century door, a canopy, and windows. The left gable has been rebuilt in brick.

A stone boundary wall extends approximately 25 metres along the front of the property, featuring gabled stone coping on the right and slab coping on the left. At the wall’s left end is a relocated, incomplete octagonal cross shaft. The 1820-1840 remodelling was undertaken in a picturesque style by Gregory Gregory, Lord of the Manor of Harlaxton, following the design principles of JC Loudon. The left gable has stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
