Description

Low Wood is a house built in 1910 and designed by E F Reynolds. It has since been subdivided into numbers 32 and 32A. The house is constructed of red brick with some polychrome diaperwork, and has a stone tiled roof. It is five bays wide, with the two outer bays projecting forward. The left and right sides have brick quoins. The outer bays are two storeys high, with a three-light gabled dormer window in the roof above the centre. The left outer bay has a ground floor canted bay window with lozenges in the woodwork and a flat roof. The right outer bay features a four-light window with transom, and above this, two three-light windows with transoms. The roughcast tympana above these upper windows each contain a central lozenge. The central bays are separated by brick pilasters, which, along with the first-floor brick band and eaves cornice, divide the facade into a series of compartments. The central doorway has a simple stone moulded surround and arched hood with lozenge decoration in the tympanum. Above the door are five three-light windows; the two lower windows have stone frames, while the three upper windows have wooden frames. All windows are casements with leaded lights, with more elaborate leading in the three central bays. A modern porch is attached to No 32A at the right angle. A coach house, in a similar style, is attached to the left side of the house and is also two storeys high.
