Description

Dolphins is an early 19th-century house located on the north side of Main Street in Flintham. It is constructed of brick and features a pantile roof, with a rendered plinth, rebated eaves, and coped gables. The house has three gable stacks and is two storeys high with three bays in an L-plan layout. The south front showcases a central doorcase with pilasters, a bracketed pediment, and a fanlight, flanked by single glazing bar sash windows. On the upper level, there are three sash windows, with the outer pair having segmental heads. The northwest front has 20th-century windows and a sloping 20th-century dormer above.
