Description
Flints is a house built in the early 19th century, constructed from flint rubble with gault brick dressings and a slate roof. It has a rectangular plan that faces northwest, positioned at right angles to the street, and features a central stack. At the rear, there is a single-storey extension made of red brick. The house stands two storeys high and has a three-window range of original casement windows with four-centred heads. There are two adjacent plain boarded doors, also with four-centred heads, set in a common opening with a four-centred arch above. The central gable displays late 19th-century fretted and pierced bargeboards, a spiked finial, and a carved pendant. A plain brick band runs along the elevation, which is symmetrical in design. The roof has a shallow pitch and is topped with a short octagonal stack featuring cruciform shafts.
On the northeast elevation facing the street, there is a two-window range of similar casement windows, along with matching bargeboards, finial, and pendant. The rear wall includes some uncoursed red brick, and the rear extension also has similar bargeboards. The stack resembles that of North Lodge, suggesting that Flints may have been designed by Henry Hakewill for Charles Savill Onley, formerly known as Harvey. The house did not appear on a map from 1823 but was present on the tithe map of 1839, although it did not yet include the rear extension.
