Description
Knoll House, dating from the early 18th century, is a two-storey building with attics, constructed of red brick and topped with a smut pantile roof. The south facade features eight bays, with sash windows that have glazing bars and architraves, and are adorned with gauged brick arches. Brick pilasters with moulded caps enhance the facade, which also includes four gabled dormers with sash windows. The entrance door is off-centre and is sheltered by a portico supported by fluted columns. The house has shaped gables that incorporate internal chimney stacks, along with an off-centre L-shaped chimney stack. There are modern one-storey extensions added to the east and west sides.
Inside, the house boasts good 18th-century panelling in the sitting room, and a contemporary staircase that features three twisted balusters per tread, along with dado panelling along the staircase.
