Description
Belmont House is a late 18th-century house situated on Cranfield High Street. It is constructed of slightly mottled red brick with brighter red dressings, and has a steep hipped clay tile roof. The house follows a symmetrical, double-pile plan, with a three-window facade. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars, set within reveals and beneath gauged brick flat arches. A central doorway features a door of five fielded panels, topped by a rectangular fanlight, within panelled reveals, framed by Ionic pilasters supporting a simple entablature. The right-hand side of the ground floor appears to have been reworked with deeper red brickwork. The building has two red brick multiple ridge stacks.
