Description
Trinity House is a mid-17th century house that incorporates remnants of an earlier building and underwent extensive alterations in the late 18th century. It has two storeys and attics, with roofs covered in red plain tiles. The building was re-fronted in the late 18th century using grey gault brickwork and features a parapet wall. The façade includes a three-window range of double-hung sashes with glazing bars and sidelights, along with two modern bay windows on the ground floor and a porch, all topped with red plain tile roofs. The northwest wing boasts a fine pediment-headed doorcase with reveals. An original chimney stack with four octagonal shafts and moulded caps is present. There is a 19th-century extension at the rear made of red brick. Inside, some original framing is visible, including jowled storey posts in the rear wing and fine moulded and stop-chamfered beams in the front range. The house features a good early 19th-century staircase with a wreathed mahogany handrail and high-quality late 18th-century fire surrounds. At least one original 17th-century reeded oak door remains. The street frontage is complemented by a good brick wall.
