Description
Redhouse is an early 19th-century house constructed of brick roughcast. It is two stories high with a hipped and slated roof, featuring two chimneys on the end slopes and a dentilled eaves cornice. The front has a range of three pairs of 8-pane hornless sash windows on the first floor, set in exposed boxes. The central door on the ground floor is six-panelled and located in a reeded case. To the left of the door is a pair of hornless sashes with glazing bars, and to the right is a semi-hexagonal bow with a slated roof and four 8-pane casements.
