Description
The Red House and the garden walls attached to the south are a house dating from the mid-18th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features black glazed pantiled roofs. The building has a three-bay, three-storey central section flanked by two-storey single-bay lean-to wings.
Notable architectural features include two two-storey canted-side three-bay brick bow windows, each with three sashes that have glazing bars. The ground floor windows are set under flat rubbed brick arches with central painted keystones, while the first floor windows are beneath a flat leaded roof. The central entrance has a wooden doorcase with an entablature that is broken forward over half columns, and it includes a simple glazing bar fanlight beneath an open pediment. The entrance door is a six-panel design.
On the first floor, there is a central sash window with glazing bars, featuring ogee switch tracery division and an arched head, also with a fanlight above. This is set under a brick arch with painted imposts and a keystone. The second floor has two outer Diocletian sashes with glazing bars, which are placed under segmental soldier arches with a central painted keystone. The central sash window on this floor has glazing bars and an arched upper sash with switch tracery division, also under a soldier arch with painted imposts and a keystone.
The building is topped with a moulded brick cornice and a hipped roof that has two eaves parapet stacks. The slightly recessed wings feature one ground floor arch-headed sash with glazing bars and one first-floor casement with an arched head and switch tracery division, both set under brick soldier arches with painted keystones and imposts, and have lean-to roofs. The structure continues to the rear as a two-storey outshut.
There is a tripartite dormer with canted sides, sashes with glazing bars, and a flat roof. To the south, there is a walled garden, with a wall to the west made of flint and brick to the east. The wall on the east is entirely brick. The parapet dwarf wall and railings to the south are of neo-Georgian style and were added after 1939, and they are not considered to be of special interest.
