Description

Park House is a house that dates from the early to mid-17th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. It features a timber frame with red brick infill, some of which is rendered, set on a sandstone plinth. There is also later red brick in a random bond. The roof is gabled and covered with plain tiles, with sandstone side stacks on the north and south cross-wings, and red brick above the ridge. The layout is that of a double-ended hall house, with a central hall and entry bay, and it has been extended by a short service range to the north cross-wing and to the roadside of the central range.

The house has two storeys, with the principal elevation facing the garden. The hall range includes a segmental arch leading to a first-floor 20th-century wood casement window. The doorway features an early 19th-century doorcase with a moulded architrave and a flat hood supported by scroll brackets. Inside, there is a six-panel door and a rectangular fanlight with glazing bars. The south cross-wing, likely used as a parlour, has two bays, one with a 20th-century three-light wood casement window above a 19th-century canted bay with a small-pane wood casement. The gable end of the north cross-wing has similar windows. The south cross-wing also displays exposed wall framing in small panels, and on the first floor, there is a casement window with original chamfered mullions.

Attached to the north side of the north cross-wing is a single-bay service range, which is timber-framed, rendered, and has a plain-tiled roof. This structure is one storey with an attic and features a doorway with a segmental arch and exposed gable end framing.

Inside, the central range contains an early 19th-century stick baluster staircase. The hall itself is unheated, while the service range has an inglenook hearth, and the south range has a parlour hearth. There is also a cheese room with a plaster floor, a ground floor room that serves as a dairy, and another room used for brewing beer. The roof structure includes through purlins and wind braces.
