Description
The Hollies Well House is a pair of houses built in the mid-18th century and remodeled in the early 19th century. They are constructed from coursed squared stone and brick, featuring ashlar dressings and pantile roofs. The building has two gable and one ridge brick stacks, a moulded first-floor lintel band, and coped gables with kneelers. It stands two storeys plus garrets and has a nine-window range, arranged in an L-plan.
The windows are characterized by leaded glazing and stone mullions, with those lacking mullions having stone lintels. The gabled wing on the right includes two single-light windows with stone surrounds and cornices, and above are two windows with stone lintels and a blank shield panel between them. Each return features a four-centred arched door, flanked on the outer side by a two-light window.
The main block to the left has a small central window flanked by two-light windows with stone surrounds and mullions. Beyond this, there are cross casements, followed by a two-light mullioned window. An off-centre four-centred arched board door with a label mould is flanked to the right by a cross casement and then a mullioned cross casement. To the left, there is a cross casement flanked by single-light windows. Further to the right, beyond the wing, is a mullioned two-light window, with a mullioned cross casement and a smaller window below. The end gables feature single garret windows.
Adjoining the left gable is a single-storey stable, now converted into a garage, comprising two bays. This building is likely one that was refronted between 1790 and 1820 by George de Ligne Gregory and later remodeled in a picturesque style between 1820 and 1840 by Gregory Gregory, who were successive Lords of the Manor of Harlaxton.
