Description

Number 16 is a house dating to 1907, designed by Crouch and Butler. It is constructed of brick, pebble-dashed with brick and stone dressings, and has a tile roof. The house is two storeys and has an attic, with an irregular arrangement of windows. Most windows are flat-arched casements with leaded lights. Some have wooden glazing bars, while others feature stone surrounds and mullions. Brick quoins mark all corners.

The front entrance is particularly grand and detailed in stone on the left side, with a simpler, wooden finish on the right, which constitutes the service end of the house. The entrance itself is round-arched, with a stone surround and double panelled doors leading to an inner porch. This porch contains a flat-arched entrance with a panelled door featuring stained glass. The porch is integrated into a single-storey, flat-roofed section with a parapet, which also incorporates a four-light window with a stone surround and a two-light window on the ground floor. A staircase window of five lights and one transom is present, along with a parapet above, incorporating a single-light and a three-light window. Two gables top the composition, and a composite modillion cornice runs along both principal fronts. Ground-floor windows to the right of the staircase bay have pebbles arranged in semi-circles above them.

The south-west front features an ingle and external stick with diaper work in pebbles. The north-east front has a four-light window with pebbles in a semi-circle above, and diaper work in pebbles, alongside a three-light window above. The garden front has two single-storey canted bays on the ground floor, linked by a hipped roof. The mullions on the main face of either bay are now missing. There are various flat-arched windows, with the kitchen window having been altered. Two flat-arched dormers are present, along with a bell cast to the roof. A ridge stack has chamfered ends, a stone lozenge, bands of blue brick, and a stone coping. An external stack to the south-east front features chimneys set lozengewise, with a recessed panel between, and stone coping.

A garage at the north-east end has been added to and altered. A single-storey, flat-roofed addition, dating to around 1965, is located in the angle of the house and garage.

The interior includes an entrance hall with a dog-leg staircase featuring square newels with domed finials, shaped rails, and square balusters. A small amount of decorative plasterwork remains on the ceilings of the morning room and drawing room. Original panelled doors and architraves are present throughout.
