Description
This early 19th-century detached house, originally a single dwelling but now divided into three separate units, stands on Broad Street in Pershore. The main house is red brick in Flemish bond, with a Welsh slate roof featuring a brick dogtooth and dentilled eaves. The wing roofs are hipped and covered in plain tiles, with an external brick stack on the left. A gabled wing extends to the rear.
The central range is a three-storey, three-bay structure with flanking two-storey, two-bay wings, the left wing taller than the right. The exterior features brick surrounds, mullions to the upper-floor windows, and painted plinth courses. The second floor has a central three-pane sash with six small panes above, flanked by tripartite windows with sidelights and central three-pane sashes, all with painted cornices. The first floor features a central round-arched sash with a Gothick-traceried head and painted keystone and imposts, flanked by Venetian windows with sidelights, central sashes with Gothick-traceried heads, keystones, and cornices. Added bow windows with four-pane over six-pane over four-pane sashes occupy the ground floor's flanks, along with a central doorway. The doorway itself has two-pane sidelights, a wide half-glazed door in a panelled reveal, a Gothick-traceried fanlight, and a keyed archivolt.
The left wing mirrors the main house's style, with a similar first-floor Venetian window and a canted bay window with four-pane sashes, a Gothick-traceried head, a leaded roof, and a stone sill. The right wing has a six-pane sash with a stone lintel and tile sill above a smaller canted bay window supported by a concrete sill. The right return shows a six-pane boxed sash and a remodelled doorcase with a gabled tile roof and a 20th-century door. The left return incorporates a rear wing with six-pane sashes, a ground-floor canted bay window with six-pane over eight-pane over six-pane sashes, and a doorcase with a three-pane overlight, a four-panel door, and a trellis porch. A further two two-storey wings and two single-storey wings extend to the rear, all with brick stacks and further extensions.
Inside No. 1, features include moulded stamped plasterwork cornices, flagstone floors, panelled doors with moulded doorcases, and some crown glazing. The plot was purchased for development in 1809.
