Description
Ayot Bury is an early 18th-century house with a front dating from around 1830. It is constructed of red brick and features old tile and slate roofs. The northern front has five recessed sash windows with gauged brick arches and three 18th-century hipped two-light casement dormers. The building includes brick quoins and a modillioned cornice, along with a modern stone porch. The eastern elevation has a late 19th-century gault brick front and early 19th-century sash windows, including a Venetian window on the first floor. The western elevation features modern square and canted bay windows. At the rear, there is a long central projection, partly from the 18th century, which includes two dormers and several sash windows with thick glazing bars.
