Dial House and Dial Cottage, Harbour Cottage and Waterside Attached to West

Dial House and Dial Cottage, Harbour Cottage, and Waterside are a group of houses located at Brancaster Staithe, built in the 17th century with alterations around 1700 and later. The buildings are constructed from pebble flint and red brick, topped with a red pantiled roof. Dial House features three bays and two storeys, with a central two-storey gabled porch addition. The brick stitching of replaced long and low windows on the first floor to the east indicates an early construction, while the brick rusticated end quoins and the additional gabled porch suggest the 1700 alterations. The central porch has a segmental brick arched entrance, a first-floor sash window with glazing bars, a stone sundial, and a brick coped ogee pediment gable. To the east, there are two ground floor sashes and one first floor sash, all with glazing bars, brick dressings, and flat arches. To the west, there is one ground floor sash with glazing bars and a two-leaf French door, both featuring c.1800 gault brick dressings, as well as one first floor plate glass sash with a single upright glazing bar and earlier brick dressings. The building has brick heightening eaves courses, and the west gable and flat-roofed rear addition date from the mid-20th century.

Attached to the west are Dial Cottage and Harbour Cottage, an early 19th-century brick and pantiled addition of two builds and two storeys, now occupied separately. Dial Cottage has a single ground and first floor sash with glazing bars, while Harbour Cottage features a similar arrangement under flat rubbed brick arches and a boarded door with a simple pentice canopy.

To the west, Waterside is a three-bay house that imitates the facade of Dial House, with a central porch featuring a ground floor gothic arch and a first-floor sash with glazing bars, a 20th-century stone plaque, and an ogee pediment gable. It has single ground and first floor sashes with glazing bars under flat rubbed brick arches on both sides, and a coped end gable. The entire row includes two end stacks and three ridge stacks. Dial Cottage, Harbour Cottage, and Waterside are included primarily for their group value.
