Description

Prospect House is an early 19th-century building of two storeys constructed in grey brick, with a hipped roof covered in Welsh slate. It has three windows on the front elevation, featuring hung sash windows with glazing bars and rusticated lintels incorporating keystones. A band runs along the cill level. The ground floor has two windows. The doorway is framed by a Doric surround with half columns, above which is a radiating fanlight; the reveals are panelled and contain a carved door. There are two windows on the side elevation. The rear of the building has been altered.
