Description
The Convent of Notre Dame is a large house that has been converted into a convent, dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a hipped pantile roof with two brick ridge chimneys. The building has two storeys and an attic, with six first-floor windows, including a slightly projecting central bay.
Access to the building is via three steps leading up to a panelled double-leaf door set in panelled reveals. This door and the side windows are flanked by Ionic pilasters. Above, two Ionic columns support a hood that features a garland entablature, paterae, and a dentilled cornice, which extends over the side windows. The sash windows have glazing bars and are set under flat gauged brick arches. The building is topped with a central pediment and a box cornice, and there are two small flat-roofed dormers. An adjoining chapel to the right is noted but is not of special architectural interest.
