Castle House

Castle House is a house built around 1820, featuring a flint exterior over clunch and a red brick facade, topped with a slate roof. The building has two storeys and is arranged in three bays, which are defined by brick pilasters. The central entrance consists of a six-panelled door that is sheltered by a moulded hood, with sash windows on either side that lack glazing bars, all set beneath gauged skewback arches. A platband runs along the first floor, which has three six-over-six sash windows, also under gauged skewback arches. The eaves cornice is ovolo-moulded brick, leading to a plain, rebuilt parapet. The roof is gabled with internal gable-end stacks, and the rear of the house rises to three storeys due to the sloping ground. There is a 20th-century single-storey extension on the east gable. Inside, the entrance hall features a staircase with stick balusters and a ramped handrail, which was formerly wreathed, along with a plaster cornice decorated with stud and rosette motifs.
