Description
No 1 Church Row is a lodge to Overbury Court, which has been converted into a house. It has origins from the 18th century or earlier and was rebuilt and extended in 1877-1878 by the architect Richard Norman Shaw for Robert Martin, with further extensions around 1940. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and features some decorative timber-framing with roughcast infill. It has a plain tiled roof with gable-end parapets and ashlar ridge end stacks.
The structure is two storeys tall with an attic that includes dormers. The first floor of the north front elevation projects outward, supported by a moulded bressummer, and features close-set studding and a swept brace in the lower left corner. The building has three bays, and all windows are fitted with leaded casements. The ground floor includes a 3-light, a 2-light, and a 5-light chamfered stone mullioned window. On the first floor, there are a 4-light, a 3-light, and a 5-light window, along with two gabled dormers that have moulded bargeboards and 4-light windows.
At the west end, there is a single-storey addition with a hipped roof, which has a chamfered plinth. Its north side features a doorway with moulded jambs and a cambered head, a door with strap hinges, and a 2-light and a 4-light window at its west end. The west side elevation faces the Church of St Faith and includes two first-floor windows with three lights and two lights, as well as a lean-to porch on shaped brackets above a door flanked by leaded lights, which serves as the main entrance. A single-storey wing added around 1940 is attached to the south. The interior retains slate and cast iron fireplaces from the 1877-1878 renovation.
