The Brainge, Gates, Piers And Walls Attached To West

The Brainge is a house dated 1703, constructed of brick with stone dressings and a hipped slate roof. It has cellars, two storeys, and an attic, measuring five by three bays. The south front features 2-light mullioned windows in the cellar's plinth, glazing bar sash windows, and two late 20th-century glazing bar swivel windows in flat-roofed attic dormers located in the second and fourth bays, with a brick stack behind each. The house has a wooden moulded and dentilled eaves cornice, a stone string course, keystones, steps, and quoins, along with an open scroll pediment and moulded architrave around the door and transom light. The west elevation includes an early 19th-century Doric porch supported by two columns. The gates at the west entrance have curved rails, enriched bars, and dog bars, while the rubble walls with stone copings are brick-faced towards the house. The piers are made of brick topped with sandstone pyramidical cappings.
