Kenwood

Kenwood is a house built in 1927 by H W Weedon. It features multi-coloured brick in various bonds, with stone, tile, and timber dressings, and a tiled roof. The main part of the house is a hipped range running roughly east-west. The entrance front on the north side has gabled cross-wings at both ends and a staircase wing that is slightly off-centre. On the garden front, there is a shallow gabled cross-wing to the west and a shallow, double-gabled cross-wing that is also slightly off-centre. The house has two storeys and an attic, with irregular window arrangements. All windows are flat-arched with casements and leaded lights, many featuring bands of tiles set on edge at the lintel.

To the left of the staircase wing, there is a Tudor-arched entrance with a stone architrave leading to an inner porch, which contains a flat-arched panelled door and leaded sidelights. The staircase wing has structural timber-framing at the upper window, a jettied and bracketed gable with timber framing and brick noggins, and decorative bargeboards. Timberwork with brick nogging frames a series of first-floor windows on either side of the staircase wing.

The outer cross-wings are identical, each with a five-light window on the ground floor, a four-light window on the first floor, and diaperwork in the gable, although the cast wing has one transom in the ground-floor window. The west front features a large external stack with an inglenook at its base. The south front has a Tudor-arched entrance and a four-light window connected by a stone architrave, situated between the two shallow wings, along with a five-sided two-storey bay on the front of the double-gabled wing. There are two flat-arched dormers on both the north and south fronts, and a total of five stacks, four of which are external.
