Description
Turnpike House is a pair of houses dating from the 18th century, with a later addition. The main section is rendered and has a Welsh slate roof, a central brick stack, and a brick end stack. The front has a three-window arrangement. The windows are 20th-century sashes with moulded architraves. On the right-hand side are entrances: a 19th-century four-panel door to Turnpike House (number 20) and a 20th-century door to number 18, both under cambered heads with simple hoods on brackets. To the left is a three-storey and cellar wing with a slate gable roof featuring scalloped bargeboards and a brick lateral stack. This wing has paired 6/6 sashes under cambered heads, with 20th-century replacements to the ground floor. The rear of the building features 19th-century casement windows.
The interior of number 18 includes an 18th-century winder staircase. The first floor has two plank doors, a two-panel door, and a wall cupboard. The ground floor has two panelled doors, a dado rail, a plank door, wall cupboards, and some exposed framing. Turnpike House (number 20) has a winder staircase with stick balusters. The first floor features four-panel doors, a plank door, architraves, and visible exposed 17th and 18th-century timber framing. The ground floor also shows mutilated 17th and 18th-century timber framing. The cellar is stone-lined, containing a massive base for a central cross axial stack and a corner stack base.
