Description
The Priory, including the outbuildings adjoining to the north, is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century, with remodels in the early and late 19th century. It is constructed of English bond red brick, featuring a sandstone plinth and quoins, and has a clay plain tile gabled roof. The building has large brick stacks at the sides, which have sandstone quoins and original brick triple shafts.
The layout includes a central narrow stair hall with entrances at both the front and rear. To the left (south) are a study and dining room (parlour), while the drawing room (hall/kitchen) is on the right. In the late 19th century, a single-storey kitchen range was added to the right (north) side, along with outbuildings, stables, and a coach house arranged around a small yard.
The exterior features two storeys and an attic, with a symmetrical three-bay gabled east front, where the central gable is smaller. The late 19th-century wooden three-light mullion-transom windows are set in chamfered brick openings with polychrome brick cambered arches. The attic windows are smaller two-light casements, with the center being a one-light. The central doorway has a studded door and an overlight with Gothic intersecting glazing bars, topped by an elaborate Victorian openwork timber porch. The rear (east) elevation is similar but includes a pilastered central doorcase and glazed double doors. There are 19th-century single-storey brick service and outbuilding ranges on the north, built around a small courtyard.
Inside, the property retains 17th-century moulded and chamfered ceiling beams and a 17th-century roof structure. The joinery from the 18th and 19th centuries includes panelled doors, window shutters, chimneypieces, and an early 19th-century open-well staircase with stick balusters and a mahogany handrail that is wreathed over the curtail with a column newel. The attics feature old plank doors and boarded partitions.
