Description
Vernon House is a house dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and features a storey band, a projecting central bay with a pediment, and a bracketed eaves cornice. The roof is slate with a brick ridge and end stacks. The house has a central staircase plan and consists of two storeys plus an attic. The front has a three-window range of replaced tripartite sashes with overlights and gauged brick arches on the ground floor, and 12-pane sashes with brick flat arches on the first floor. There is a small semi-circular window with a brick arch in the tympanum. The entrance includes a six-panelled door with a wreathed fanlight, flanked by fluted pilasters and topped with an open pediment supported on consoles. To the far left, there is another plank door with a fanlight and gauged brick arch. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
