Description
Waterloo House is a house, later converted into offices, dating to around 1830, with a later 19th-century rear wing. It is constructed of brick with plaster and ashlar dressings, and has a hipped slate roof with brick end stacks. The house has a double-depth plan with a central staircase. The front facade is arranged with two storeys and five window bays. It features an ashlar plinth, a sill course on the first floor, and plain eaves. Plaster angle pilasters add definition to the facade. The windows are 12-pane horns sashes, each with a frieze and consoled cornice. A canted bay window is located on the left side, containing three sashed windows, a sill course, and a cornice. The central entrance is sheltered by a distyle in antis porch with a plaster gable and channelled rustication on the interior. A round-headed archway has an architrave and a stained-glass fanlight above a half-glazed door. The rear of the building has sashed windows and two round-headed windows, each with intersecting heads for the small-paned glazing. A single-storey range to the rear includes segmental-headed casements and an entrance on the left. The interior features rich plaster cornices in the front rooms; rosettes are present on the left side, while a vine trail decorates the right. The staircase has slender iron balusters and a wreathed handrail.
