Description

1 and 3 Stamford Road is a house and service block that has been divided into two properties. It dates from the late 17th century and was refronted in 1742 and 1800, with alterations made in the 20th century. The building features ashlar and coursed, banded limestone rubble, with Collyweston slate roofs and stone coped gables. There are four ashlar gable stacks with cornices and one red brick gable stack for the service range.

The main house (No. 1) has a three-storey, five-bay ashlar front, which includes a moulded plinth, plain cill bands on each floor, a cyma moulded cornice, and a plain parapet, along with rusticated quoins. The central entrance has a six-panel door flanked by pairs of glazing bar sash windows. The first floor features five similar windows, all with moulded cambered stone architraves. The second floor has five small square glazing bar sashes, also with moulded architraves. To the left of the front, a cast lead rainwater head displays the initials HB and the date 1800.

The service block (No. 3) is a two-storey, irregular three-bay structure made of coursed and banded limestone rubble. It has a 20th-century half-glazed door with a plain overlight and an ashlar lintel with a keystone. To the right, there is a fixed light in the blocking of a door and a 20th-century three-light casement. The first floor contains a single glazing bar sash. A brick in the left-hand rear chimney stack is inscribed 'restored 1742'.

Inside, two fireplaces feature late 17th-century chamfered bressumers, and the service block has a roll moulded girder from a similar period. There is mid-18th-century panelling on two walls downstairs, along with reset sections. Two late 18th-century fireplaces made of limestone have moulded lintels, keyblocks, and rounded corners. The full-height staircase has turned spindle balusters, a moulded handrail, carved string, and panelled sides. On the first floor, a semi-circular arched opening with a moulded wooden surround and fluted pilaster reveals leads into the former dressing room of the principal bedroom. This bedroom features full-height mid-18th-century raised and fielded panelling, with seemingly contemporary Gothic arched recesses on either side of the fireplace. The roof, made of pegged oak clasped purlins, dates from the late 17th century.
