Description
Corner House is a house dating from the early 17th century with later additions. It features red brick with white brick diapering and flint, topped with pantiled roofs, and has an L-shaped plan. The 17th-century section has a two-storey, three-bay road facade. It has a tall flint plinth with a rendered cap, interrupted by two of the three ground floor casements, all of which have reveals rendered to imitate ashlar and have been restored. The first floor has three 20th-century casements, also with rendered reveals. There are brick dentils, likely from the 19th century, and kneelered parapet gables. The house has two internal gable end stacks; the left gable has been repaired, while the right gable features a small window on the first floor with a hood mould. The rear of the house has random fenestration, including one small window, a five-light 20th-century mullion in an earlier opening, and two 20th-century casements, all with renewed ashlar reveals. There is an ovolo moulded platband with remnants of rendering and three 20th-century windows on the first floor. The left gable has a moulded kneeler. At right angles to the main house is a two-storey range from the 19th century, which was enlarged in the 20th century and is of no special interest.
