Description
Sinton Court is a house dated 1838, with later 19th-century additions and alterations. It is built of brick with ashlar dressings, tiled roofs, and parapets at the gable ends, featuring moulded copings and kneelers. The prominent chimney stacks are a key feature, with four stacks to the main part of the building; two have paired shafts with octagonal caps and oversailing cap courses, and two have cogged brick courses. The house is in a Jacobethan style, displaying a symmetrical facade and a multi-gabled roofline. A moulded eaves cornice is present on the front, while the rear features cogged eaves detail.
The front elevation, facing the garden, is composed of three gabled bays. The outer bays have a four-light window on the ground floor and a three-light window on the first floor, both with cavetto-moulded mullions. Stone shields are set in the gables; the left shield displays the initials of the original owner, and the right displays the date 1838. The central gabled bay projects, with an ashlar ground floor and a pointed arched doorway with a hood mould and dagger-lobed trefoils in the spandrels. The doorway has canted sides with side lights, a panelled timber door, corbelled sides, ashlar quoins and a central oriel window on the first floor with pointed arched lights. Above the oriel is a coat of arms set in a square niche. A two-storey brick extension adjoins the right side of the house, and a mid-19th-century conservatory with arcaded glazing and a crested ridge is located on the left. The interior has not been inspected.
