Canon Bridge House

Canon Bridge House is a house dating from the early to mid-18th century, with potential origins in an earlier structure. Constructed primarily of brick with Welsh slate roofs and brick stacks, the house is arranged around a roughly symmetrical plan, aligned north-north-east to south-south-west. It has two storeys and cellars.

The east-facing elevation features a 3:3:3 window arrangement, with blind windows. The central three-window section has sash windows beneath keystones. The lower wings have segmental heads above the ground floor windows, and blind windows to the two right-hand bays. Plat bands mark the divisions between the three parts of the facade. A central six-panelled door, with a transom light, is set within a moulded wooden doorcase. To the left of the right wing, there is a further door with a glazed upper portion.

Inside, a three-flight, early 18th-century dog-leg staircase has turned balusters. A first-floor room in the south-west wing features mirrored shutters and Gothick quatrefoil and ogee motifs to the window surrounds and door. The south-west wing incorporates wall-plates and pegged tie-beam trusses with wattle infill, suggesting an earlier building dating from the late 16th to 17th century that was later enveloped within the main structure. The principal ground floor room on the west side of the central pavilion has a moulded cornice with dentils and egg-and-dart design. An adjacent east room also features an enriched plaster cornice.
