Description
Corner House is a house that underwent mid-19th century remodelling of an earlier structure, with later additions and alterations. The exterior is roughcast, likely covering a timber frame, and it has a slate roof. The original baffle-entry plan, which consists of three framed bays, has been obscured by later changes. The building is one storey with an attic and features four multi-paned mid-19th century casement windows with bracketed gabled hoods on the ground floor, along with one gabled dormer in the roof slope at the center. The current entrance is through a boarded door topped with a bracketed pedimented hood, located in a mid-19th century single-storey brick addition to the right. There is a reddish brown brick ridge stack to the left of center on the main range. Irregularities in the plaster suggest that the third window from the left may have been the location of a former doorway. At the rear, there is a gabled brick porch with a boarded door featuring a semi-circular fanlight and a Salop Fire Insurance plate above. Inside, the main ground-floor room at the center has two chamfered spine beams and an oak winder staircase leading off.
