Turrett House

Turrett House is a house dated 1831, built by John Withers, a bricklayer. It is constructed of red brick with a slate roof and features a double depth plan with a single lean-to wing to the west. The design is in the Gothick style and consists of three bays, with the central bay set slightly forward and containing a single-storey porch. The porch has a four-centred arch and a dated sundial above it. The house includes polygonal buttresses, cement finials, and battlemented parapets.

Inside, the entrance door is glazed and features Gothick panels, blank tracery in the spandrels, and panelled reveals. The outer bays have sash windows with glazing bars, four-centred arched traceried heads, hood moulds, and stone sills. There are polygonal buttresses at the corners with cement finials, and a cement moulded string course at both the first floor and eaves level. The tall battlemented parapet masks the roof, which is gabled with two internal stacks in the valley.

On the east elevation, two windows were inserted in the 20th century as top hung casements. The interior remains intact, featuring a small geometrical stair, moulded plaster cornices, ceiling roses, and Gothick panelled doors and doorcases.
