Description
Fairways is a house with an attached garden wall and outbuildings, dating from around 1800, with additions and alterations from the mid and late 19th century. The building is constructed of red brick, featuring brick dressings, and has hipped plain tile and gabled Welsh slate roofs. It has two external coped gable stacks and dentillated eaves. The house is three storeys high and has a three-window range. Most of the windows are original wooden casements with metal opening lights and segmental heads.
The front of the house features a full-width wooden porch with elliptical arches and a hipped roof, set behind a wooden balustrade. The central entrance has a moulded wooden doorcase with a part-glazed six-panel door, flanked by a three-light casement window on the left and a cross-casement window on the right. Above the entrance, there are three windows on each floor, with the central windows being smaller. Each gable has an inserted ground floor window; the right window is segment-headed, while the left window is round-arched with leaded glazing.
At the rear, there is a two-storey addition that has a door to the left and a glazing bar window to the right on the west side. Above this, there is a plain sash window. The single-storey outbuildings are in an L-shape and feature a gable stack, close-boarded doors, and a glazing bar window. These outbuildings incorporate an ashlar wall, which is part of an earlier construction.
Inside, the ground floor left room has an original fireplace surround with a cornice and mantelshelf, flanked by round-arched recesses. There is an original winder staircase with turned newels and stick balusters. The first-floor rooms contain early 19th-century hob grates and several original six-panel doors, some of which have been altered. The rear addition includes a 19th-century brick fireplace and a chamfered span beam, while the larder has brick thrawls and fitted cupboards. The outbuildings feature reused early 18th-century roof trusses and thrawls.
Outside, there is an attached garden wall made of brick with brick coping, approximately 25 meters long.
