Description

Ardeley Place is a house dating from the 17th century, with extensions made in the 20th century. It has a timber frame covered in roughcast and features a steep thatched roof. The building is two stories high and follows a three-cell, lobby entry plan, facing east with its south gable towards the road. There is a red brick central chimney located a third of the way from the north end, and a later red brick chimney inserted a third from the south end. The east front has flush casement windows with square quarries and old iron casements, with three windows on each floor. A hipped thatched open porch is present, along with a tiled lean-to roughcast extension on the southeast. There is a two-story T-shaped wing linked to the north end, which is not of special interest, and a thatched lean-to at the southwest. Each floor of the east gable facing the road has a casement window.
