Description

Darcy House, located at No. 1 South Street in Tollethunt D'Arcy, is an 18th-century house constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, topped with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building features a single-span range facing west, with a central stack and an internal stack at each end. There is a service range at the rear of the left end. An early 19th-century single-storey extension with a low-pitched hipped roof made of slate is situated to the left of the main range, along with additional 19th-century single-storey extensions at the rear. The house stands two storeys tall with attics and has a seven-window range of 20th-century sashes, each with 12 lights, set in original openings with flat arches made of gauged brick. The attic includes four 19th-century casements in gabled dormers. The entrance features an off-centre half-glazed door beneath a 20th-century shell hood porch. Above the first-floor windows, there is a modillioned stone or plaster cornice. The parapet has seven blank recesses that dip in front of each dormer. The roof is mansard in style. One original sash window with eight lights, made of crown glass, is located on the first floor of the left return. To the right, a brick wall extends approximately 33 metres along the road, standing about 2 metres high and topped with plain coping. A doorway with a two-centred Gothick arch is positioned 1.5 metres from the southern end of the wall, which curves back to meet the northwest corner of D'Arcy Cottage.
