Description
Hawstead House is a house from the early 18th century, with extensions and alterations made around 1900 by A N Prentice. It is built of squared limestone and has a stone slate roof. The house has two storeys and an attic, with the original part facing the road consisting of three bays and featuring a drip course above the ground floor windows. The windows are rebated and chamfered, and consist of two lights. There are two hipped attic dormers topped with ball finials. The central window on the ground floor may have replaced a doorway. The gables are coped and have chimneys with cyma cornices.
To the left (east) is an added one-storey range with an attic, which includes mullioned windows. Projecting from this range is a single-storey wing that has a chimney stack on its front gable wall. At the rear of the original house is a wing with windows that have plain reveals and a doorway beneath a stone-slated open porch, linking to a rear block designed by Prentice. This block has a hipped roof and a main facade facing south towards the garden. The ground floor windows here have transoms, and the centre features a canted bay window with three lights at the front and two on each side, flanked by 2-light windows. On the first floor, there are four 2-light windows and a central recessed panel with a sundial inscribed: "SINE SOLE SILEO".
