Description
Bridge House, also known as The Moorings, is a 17th-century brick house featuring late Georgian windows. It has two storeys, attics, cellars, and tiled roofs. The south front showcases a six-window range of double-hung sashes with glazing bars, segmental heads, and pointed heads to the glazing bars in the upper sashes. The ground floor includes three-light windows, and four oval brick panels divide the upper storey into pairs. A brick band runs along the building, and there is a Georgian oriel window on the east side of the upper storey.
