Brick House

Brick House, located at No. 26 North Street in Great Dunmow, is a former brewery manager's house built in the early 19th century. It features red Flemish bond brickwork and a slate hipped roof, with a rear block that has a hipped peg tile roof. The building has two storeys on the road side but appears as three storeys on the garden sides. The front facade includes three double-hung sash windows with small panes, along with two similar windows and a central door. The door is framed by two semi-circular superimposed arches and a semi-circular fanlight with radiating glazing bars. The door itself is a six-panel design, and the steps have been rebuilt. All the arches above the windows are made of red rubbed brick and are flat over the window heads. To the north, there is a lower hipped slate-roofed block that features two double-hung sash windows with small panes above one similar window, as well as a segmental-headed carriage arch that slopes down to the rear garden. The building also has 19th-century painted timber balconies on the south and east sides.
