Description
Langton House is a house, now used as offices, built around 1775. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a hipped tile roof with brick stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and is designed in the Georgian style. It stands three storeys high and has a four-window range, topped with a cornice.
The entrance, located to the right of the centre, has a segmental head and is framed by a doorcase with an architrave and a consoled pediment. Above the paired three-panel doors is a radial-bar fanlight. The windows throughout the building have sills and are topped with rubbed brick flat arches, featuring twelve-pane sashes on the lower floors and six-pane sashes on the second floor.
The right return of the building has three similar windows above a single-storey wing, which includes a twelve-pane sash and a plastered return with an end stack. At the rear, there is a round-headed stair window.
