Description

No. 1 Main Street is an estate cottage, now a house, built in 1896 by Bentley Rudd of Grantham for Earl Brownlow. The building features coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings and slate roofs, designed in the Tudor Revival style. It has a central ashlar ridge stack with four square coped flues, along with similar ridge stacks that have double and single flues.

The cottage has a plinth, quoins, coped gables with kneelers, and ball finials. It is two storeys tall with a T-plan layout and three sets of three windows. The windows are primarily 19th-century casements with stone surrounds, cornices, and chamfered mullions.

On the left side, there is a gabled wing featuring a two-light window above and a three-light window below. The main range to the right includes a small single-light window, which is flanked by a square panel with a datestone. Below this is a lean-to verandah supported by turned wooden columns and a splat balustrade, covering a board door and a three-light metal-framed casement. The right gable has a two-light window, and below it is a carved stone bay window with a hipped roof and a three-light cross casement.

The left return has a projecting gabled central bay with a window on each floor, flanked by single windows on the ground floor. This estate cottage was provided for workers on the Belton estate by the Brownlow family of Belton House.
