Description
Bredon House is a house, now used as an office, built around 1810. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a hipped slate roof with brick stacks. The building has a double-depth plan with a rear wing and stands two storeys tall. The front is symmetrical with a three-window range, plus an addition to the right. There is a first-floor sill course, a top frieze, a cornice, and boxed eaves, along with brick quoins. The windows have rubbed brick flat arches above 12-pane sash windows, and the addition has similar windows on both floors. The central entrance is framed by an architrave and an Ionic porch, with an overlight and a six-fielded-panel door. A large brick stack with an ashlar cap is complemented by smaller end stacks. The rear of the house displays similar architectural details, with a short wing and an attached three-window range beneath a hipped roof. The house is set back from the road, which may indicate the original line of the road before it was re-routed by Thomas Telford in the 1820s.
