Description

Brimpton House is an early 19th-century house, originally used as a dwelling and later converted into a surgery. It has been extended in the 19th and 20th centuries. The house is constructed of gault brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a slate roof. It follows a double-pile plan, facing southeast, and contains four internal stacks. A substantial extension matching the original style was built to the rear left, incorporating one internal stack, alongside a single-storey ancillary building to the rear right.

The two-storey front facade has a three-window arrangement of sashes, each with 20 lights, including marginal lights, set within shallow segmental arches of gauged brick. The windows contain crown glass. A central door has six panels, a plain overlight, and a plaster doorcase featuring pilasters with moulded bases and caps, a frieze, a moulded flat canopy, and panelled jambs and soffit. The central part of the front elevation projects forward. Corner pilasters are giant in scale. The roof is low-pitched with a long overhang at the eaves, with sheet metal on all ridges.

The garden elevation to the southwest has similarly styled windows. The right return has a single original sash window with 20 lights on the ground floor. A low dwarf brick wall runs along the street boundary, supported by six brick piers connected to the house by short spur walls at each end.
