Description
Middlewood House is a farmhouse dating from the early to late 18th century. It features roughcast rubble construction and a hipped slate roof with gable-end stacks that have brick shafts. The building is two storeys tall with an attic, which is illuminated by a large lunette in the pediment. On the first floor, there are three 12-pane sash windows, while the ground floor has two segmental bay windows, each with three 12-pane sashes, flanking a central entrance. The entrance is covered by a flat canopy supported by slender wooden Doric columns and features a moulded cornice, with a plain fanlight above a four-panelled door.
Inside, there is an early 18th-century back staircase located to the right of the building. This section of the house shows evidence of an earlier building, particularly in the arrangement of the ceiling beams in the front room on the first floor. The ceiling intersects with the sash window on the front elevation, creating three storeys in this part of the house. The main staircase is adorned with stick balusters and a moulded handrail.
