Description
Marton House, now divided into two dwellings, was built in the late 18th or early 19th century, with 19th-century additions to the right-hand side and later 19th-century alterations. The house is constructed of Flemish bond brick, with additions using red and yellow chequer brick patterns. It has dog-tooth cornices and old tile roofs, with blue brick ridge stacks on the right end. It follows a U-plan, with wings at the rear.
The main range is two storeys high and originally had three windows, with a one-window addition to the right. The entrance to the left-hand dwelling (No.1) is situated between the second and third bays, featuring a half-glazed 6-panelled door with an overlight. The door is set within a rendered surround and protected by a slate hood on mid-to-late 19th-century cast iron scrolled brackets. The first bay on the left has a pair of 19th or 20th-century sash windows with a rendered lintel to the ground floor. The third bay, which now forms part of No.2, has a late 19th-century rendered canted bay window. Other windows throughout are 16-pane sashes in moulded surrounds with painted flat arches and keystones. The right-hand range of No.2 has a late 20th-century half-glazed door set within a brick cambered arch. Ground-floor windows in this section, and to a single-storey range, also have 16-pane sashes in rendered surrounds; a first-floor window is a 4-pane sash. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
