Description
Ivy House and Cuttlestone Mews is a house, now divided into two, dated 1741 with later alterations and additions. It is constructed of red brick with a plain tile roof and brick integral end stacks. The building has an L-shaped plan, with the main house aligned east-west facing north and a rear wing aligned north-south facing west, along with an extension wing (Cuttlestone Mews) to the south on the same alignment.
The north front features two storeys and a gable-lit attic with three windows. These are mid-19th century sashes with horns set in 18th-century openings that have segmental heads and raised keys. The ground floor right window is blocked, and there is a central six-panelled door with a rectangular overlight and a moulded doorcase that partly obscures the original segmental head, with a datestone above.
The west front is divided into three parts: the gable end of the main house on the left, a recessed 18th-century rear wing in the centre, and an early 19th-century extension wing (Cuttlestone Mews) on the right. The main house has two storeys and an attic with one bay, featuring 19th-century sash windows with segmental heads and raised keys, although the first-floor window is blocked. The 18th-century wing has two storeys and one bay, with a glazed door and casement on the ground floor, and a glazing bar sash on the first floor with a segmental head and raised key. The 19th-century wing is made of red brick with a slate roof, featuring a brick ridge stack and integral end stack. It has two storeys with three windows: casements with segmental heads on the right, glazing bar sashes on the ground floor left and centre, and a 19th-century sash on the first floor left. The ground-floor windows to the left and centre are tripartite with pronounced segmental heads, and there is a small casement to the left of centre, along with a six-panelled door to the right of centre.
