Eastfield House Including Stables To Rear

Eastfield House, including the stables to the rear, is a house dating from the 1840s. It is constructed of brick with carstone dressings, topped with plain tiled roofs. The design combines Jacobean and Gothic architectural styles, displaying a balanced asymmetry. A central square porch features corner turrets and finials, with a moulded arched entrance flanked by window bays that jut forward under stopped gables. The windows are largely paired or tripled, set under arched brick hoods with fish-scale plastering to the tympanums. A modified Palladian-style window is found on the first floor to the right. Elaborately moulded brick eaves cornices of varying designs run along the top of the house. The gabled roofs incorporate eccentrically placed double-flued stacks. The west-facing facade also features two stopped gables on the cross wings, one of which has a two-storey canted bay window with a crenellated parapet. Attached to the house at the rear are stables arranged in a T shape. These stables have windows with lancet heads, mirroring the house’s style, with brick nogging in the tympanums. They are covered by gabled roofs with saw-toothed eaves cornices.
