Description

Hennor is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations and additions made in the 19th century. The exterior is roughcast with a 20th-century plain tile roof, which originally had stone tiles, and features two gables on the south front. The building has an E-shaped plan and is two storeys high with a cellar. It has a five-window range with 19th-century two-over-two sash windows set in stucco architraves, all under moulded hoods. A cornice tops the stone-coped stucco parapet.

The central entrance includes a porch with a six-fielded-panel door in panelled reveals, framed by a cambered architrave beneath a moulded and modillioned pediment decorated in the Adamesque style, supported by attached Tuscan columns. The entrance is flanked by sidelights and two-over-one sash windows in stucco architraves. The advanced wings have similar two-over-two (blocked) sashes above two-over-one sashes on the right side, while the left side features two-over-two sashes above an early 20th-century mullion and transom window with leaded lights, set in a shouldered architrave with a hood.

The right side of the building has 19th-century wings at the rear. The rear features 18th and 19th-century brickwork, with rubble wings and scattered fenestration that includes margin-glazing and a leaded cross-window. There is also a 19th-century part-glazed, panelled door and a date-stone from 1687, which is now erased, along with two 18th-century rainwater heads.

Inside, there is an Adamesque frieze in the chapel and Edwardian panelling along with a staircase featuring splat balusters.
