Description
Tower House is a late 18th-century house, now used as an office, with later additions. The house is constructed of red brick with a rendered plinth, and has a hipped pantile roof and scattered chimneys. It is three storeys high and symmetrical, with three windows to the first floor. The main entrance features a six-panelled door with a fanlight containing cinque-foiled glazing bars, set within panelled reveals and flanked by two half-columns supporting an open pediment. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars and a Modillion cornice. A three-storey canted bay window is present on the garden front to the left, and a two-storey extension was added in the 20th century to the right. Originally, the building had a two-span roof with a third, parallel ridge added in the 19th century, and further additions in the 20th century to the rear, which adjoin a 17th-century tower (listed separately). Internally, there are six-panelled doors, a staircase with turned balusters, and dentilled cornices.
