Harley House

Harley House is a house dating back to around 1739, though it incorporates a core dating from the 16th or 17th century. The front is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble, with a hipped roof of Welsh slate and brick stacks on the sides. It has three storeys and originally five windows across the front. The upper floors feature 6/6 sash windows with flat ashlar arches, while the top floor has three/three sash windows. Moulded wooden eaves and a central pediment containing a window with a cambered head and ashlar arch are prominent features. A 19th-century lean-to addition is present to the left, featuring a leaded light and casement window at ground floor, sheltered by a pentice roof. The left side of the house has a 19th-century part-glazed six-panel door, set within wooden reveals and under a moulded wooden entablature on plain pilasters, with two grilled lights above. The house was the home of the naturalist Henry Graves Bull from 1818 to 1885.
