Description
The Red House is an early 19th-century house located on Warley Road in Great Warley. It is constructed of red brick and features a shallow pitch slate hipped roof with deep eaves and flanking stacks. The house has a rectangular plan and stands two storeys tall, with a three-window range. All windows are sashes with glazing bars, adorned with rubbed brick voussoirs and stuccoed sills.
The ground floor includes a central front door with a round-headed fanlight that has ornamental glazing. The door is recessed and framed by reeded, stuccoed jambs, with doorway reveals featuring sunk panels. The door itself has two glazed upper panels and four recessed lower panels, flanked by a single window with four panes by four panes. On the first floor, there is a central window with three panes by four panes on each side, along with a window of four panes by four panes.
On the rear, or north elevation, there is a three-window range of segment-headed sashes with glazing bars. The ground floor features a window with four panes by four panes, alongside a 20th-century lean-to addition made of red brick and a synthetic slate roof, which includes two 20th-century windows with glazing bars, each with three panes by three panes. The west face has a glazed window with a central French window, both with glazing bars, totaling eight panes by five panes overall. The first floor on the west side has one window with four panes by four panes and two windows with three panes by four panes. The west end has two identical protruding stacks that serve the front and rear rooms.
Inside, the house features plain slender stair balusters that may be original. The Red House is part of a group of buildings surrounding the green.
