Description

Gredenton is a house located on Dog Lane, originally shown on the Ordnance Survey map as Grendenton Cottage. The right section of the house dates back to the 16th century, while the left side features alterations and additions from the 19th century and mid to late 20th century. The front of the house facing Dog Lane is constructed with regularly coursed ironstone on the right and rougher stonework on the left. It has a mid to late 20th-century tile roof and includes brick and stone stacks, some of which have diagonally set corbels.

The building was originally designed with a through-passage plan but has been altered and extended to form a four-unit L-plan, with a wing at the rear. It is two storeys high and has a four-window range. The right section features a blocked 16th-century moulded four-centre arched doorway and a chamfered fire window to the left, along with a late 20th-century window above the doorway. On the ground floor, there is a leaded casement window to the right, which has a hood mould. The left section has three-light casements, while the first floor features 19th and 20th-century casements with glazing bars and painted wood lintels.

To the left, there is a one-storey and attic range with a 20th-century casement window. The entrance to the low single-storey range on the left has a 19th-century flush four-panelled door. The right return side of the house displays a firemark. In the garden, there is a three-window range, with a late 20th-century one-window wing on the right. The central entrance features a 16th-century four-centre arched doorway with a large hood mould and a 20th-century glazed door, along with a very small window just above it. To the left, there is a large early to mid-20th-century three-light stone-mullioned window, and to the right, smaller three-light mullion windows that are likely original. The right section of the house has a string course, and the right end includes a 20th-century flat-roofed single-storey addition with a recessed door and two small two-light mullion windows. The first floor has a two-light leaded wood casement with a painted lintel on the left, along with two two-light mullion windows. The interior is noted for having stop-chamfered beams and is said to feature a large inglenook.
