Former Laundry House About 200 Metres West Of Brocket Hall

The former laundry house, located about 200 metres west of Brocket Hall, dates from the mid to late 18th century and is likely the work of architect James Paine. It forms a symmetrical group on the north side of a courtyard, with the laundry block on the west and The Temple on the east. The building is constructed of red brick and features a hipped slate roof. It is two stories high in the center with three windows, while the sides are single storey with three windows each. The central section has a high floor band that continues as brick dentilled eaves on the sides. The windows are glazing bar sash types, and the central door has a bricked-in window above it, with a similar door and glazed window in the left-hand block.
