Description

The Deputy's House at Papplewick Pumping Station is a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1884 by M. O. Tarbotton for the Nottingham Corporation Water Department. This house, which is now a private residence, is built of brick and features a two-colour slate roof in the Gothic Revival style. It includes ashlar and moulded brick dressings, a string course, a sill band, machiolated eaves, and decorative bargeboards.

The house is designed in an L-plan and has two storeys with three bays. The windows are primarily mullioned and transomed shouldered casements with bracketed sills. On the north side, there is an off-centre door with a lean-to hood supported by brackets, a casement to its left, and a wing with a canted bay window and a casement in the return angle to the right. Above this, there are two casements to the left and a double lancet to the right. The east side features a square bay window on the left and a double lancet above it. The south side has a modern lean-to addition with a door and a casement in the return angle.

Outside, there are ashlar steps with a moulded balustrade and four octagonal piers. This building serves as a detached ancillary structure of the Papplewick Pumping Station.
