Description

Wootton House is a farmhouse dating from 1700, with later additions and alterations. It is built of painted brick and has a slate roof. The original structure is L-shaped, featuring a two-storey 19th-century lean-to at the rear and a single-storey kitchen range that projects at right angles to the back. The house has two storeys and a gable-lit attic, with a continuous toothed floor band. It features four-paned sash windows with segmental heads on either side of a six-panel door, which has glazed top panels, all beneath a 19th-century gabled wooden porch. Above the door is a datestone, and to the right, there is a massive truncated external end stack, with a brick addition abutting it, and an axial stack with a paired rebated 1700 shaft on the back wall to the left.
