Barton Court

Barton Court is a house built around 1785 for Henry Lambert. It is constructed of brick and features a diminishing course hipped slate roof. The building has two storeys above a basement and is characterized by a dentilled eaves cornice. The façade consists of two bays, one bay, and three bays, with glazing bar sash windows on the first floor and plate glass windows on the ground floor, all with exposed boxes. The entrance is set in a slight pedimented break, with a lunette in the gable and a stone band below. There is a Venetian window on the first floor, which has stone dressings, a stepped keystone, and bracketed cills. A tripartite porch from the 1820s on the ground floor mirrors the proportions of the façade and features half-glazed doors. There is also a 20th-century porthole window immediately to the left of the porch. The house has a roughly 'L' shaped plan, with mid-19th century infill creating a rectangular layout, later lower extensions to the northeast, and a 1920s angled loggia at the junction.

Inside, the principal room on the ground floor to the right is designed in the Adam style, featuring wall and ceiling panels and fretted door heads. The staircase, likely from the mid-19th century, has a mahogany handrail and square-shaped balusters. Timber-framing of very thin scantling from the 19th century is visible from a window in the inner wall. Shutters and doors throughout the house have square fielded panels. The landing and first-floor corridors feature heavily moulded elliptical arch doorways. The dining room on the ground floor to the left is from the 1920s and is also in the Adam style, incorporating a late 18th-century marble fireplace. The hall is decorated in the Adam style as well.
