Description

The Bridge House is a house, now divided, likely built in the mid- to late 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It features regularly coursed limestone rubble and a slate roof. The building is designed in an L-plan with a short arm extending to the rear on the right side, and there is a 19th-century painted brick range at the angle between the two arms.

The house has two storeys and a three-window front, with late 19th-century multi-paned casements set in original stone surrounds. The ground floor windows are stop-chamfered, and there is a cill band at the first floor, which is also present on the rear range. The central entrance has a stone doorcase topped with a bracketed segmental hood, and it features a 20th-century ledged door. There is a red brick stack located at the center of the back wall and an internal end stack on the rear range.
