Description
Angel House is a house dating from the early 17th century, with extensions from the late 17th century, a refronting from the late 18th century, and some restoration from the mid-20th century. It features a timber frame with painted brick and rendered infill on a rubble base, and it has been refronted in brick with a tiled roof. The building has a T-plan, with a cross-wing aligned east to west and a rear wing extending to the north, which was added in the late 17th century. The main stack is located between two bays of the original rear wing.
The south front has two storeys and three windows, all of which are 3-light casements with leaded rectangular quarries and timber sills. The two similar casements on the ground floor have rubbed brick heads. The central entrance is approached by four stone steps and features a broken pediment supported on scrolled wooden brackets. The entrance door is a two-leaf door with four panels and a narrow overlight.
The framing consists of four square panels high, and both gables of the cross-wing are jettied with a chamfered bressummer on simple curved brackets. There are straight angle braces to the tie-beam, and the truss has five struts to the collar and V-struts in the apex. The rear wing also has four square panels high, while the late 17th-century addition has three square panels high. Inside, there are exposed chamfered and stopped ceiling beams, and in the fireplace of the main stack, there is a re-used 14th-century moulded stone.
