Description
Stratton House is a building that has undergone 18th and 19th century remodelling of a 17th century timber-framed structure. It features a facade made of gault brick and is two storeys high with attics, topped by a concrete tile roof. The house has three hipped dormers and a panelled parapet. There are four sash windows with glazing bars, set under stone heads with keystones. On the ground floor, there are two canted bay windows from the 19th century, each with slate roofs. The central entrance has an 18th century doorcase that includes plain pilasters, a triglyph frieze, and heavy console brackets supporting a deep hood. The entrance has panelled reveals and a six-panel door. The right-hand wing is slightly taller and features two box dormers and a rebuilt plain parapet. The first floor has two sash windows with glazing bars, while the left side of the ground floor has small sash windows, and the right side has a sash window with glazing bars and sidelights.
