Description
Freeman House is a house that has been converted into a surgery and flats. It dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of brick laid in Flemish bond, topped with a renewed tile roof that features two brick stacks at the rear. The building is double-fronted with an end passage.
The exterior is three storeys high and has an almost symmetrical two-window arrangement. At the top, there is a dentilled brick cornice. The central entrance features an Adam-style doorcase, which is likely from a different location, and includes panelled pilasters, an entablature, and an open pediment that was originally decorated with urns and swags. The entrance door itself has six fielded panels, two of which are glazed. To the left of the main entrance, there is a segmental-headed passageway entrance.
Flanking the main entrance are windows with sills and rubbed brick flat arches above 8/8 sash windows in moulded frames. The first and second floors also have similar windows with horned sashes, while the second-floor windows are square and have 8/8 sashes that are slightly squatter in proportion. The interior has not been inspected.
