Description
Edge House is a 18th-century building that was extended in the 19th century, located on the north-west side of Station Road in Tolleysunt D'Arcy. The house is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. It originally featured three bays facing east with a central stack, creating a lobby entrance, and consists of two storeys with attics. To the left, there is a two-bay extension of the same height but only one storey with attics, dating from around 1800. A narrow parallel range runs along the full length of the rear. On the right side, there is a one-bay extension that is lower than the main structure, also one storey with an attic, featuring an external stack at the end, built in the early 19th century. There is a single-storey extension to the left made of stock bricks with a slate roof and a rear stack, added in the late 19th century.
The ground floor includes one 19th-century sash window with 16 lights, a bowed shop window with 20th-century metal glazing replacing the former shop windows, and a moulded fascia above. There are also three 20th-century casement windows. On the first floor, there are two 18th-century three-light windows, each with one wrought iron casement, and one early 19th-century two-light window with a wrought iron casement in a hipped dormer. In the attic, there is one 20th-century sash window and two 20th-century casements, all set in hipped dormers. The entrance features a 20th-century six-panel door with glazed top lights, topped by an 18th-century open pediment on scrolled brackets. Above the door, there is a plaster shield displaying the dates 1755 and 1968. The building has gambrel roofs that are half-hipped, with moulded eaves cornices on the long main front and the dormers. Some of the internal framing is exposed.
