Description
Wharf House is an early 18th century house located on the east side of Wansford Bridge End. It is constructed of coursed stone with dressed quoins and features a steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof, complete with stone coping on the end gables. The house is two storeys tall with an attic and has a three-window range, although the right-hand window is blocked. The windows are sashes with glazing bars, and there are three hipped dormers. The property has ashlar stacks with cornices, one located on the ridge with five square shafts and another at the south end. At the rear, there is an ashlar bay with two sashes and a 18th-century wing that has a gabled end to the roof, along with a single-storey extension.
