Description
Fysh House is an 18th-century red brick house that has been altered in the 19th century and later. The front features a parapet with stone balustrade panels and bands of white brick. The windows originally had sash windows, most of which have been replaced with modern casements, and are now set within flat white brick arches. The house is two storeys high. A large, mostly rebuilt, semi-circular bay window has been added to the front. At the rear, two timber-framed and plastered gables are visible, potentially representing a portion of an earlier 17th-century house. The roof is tiled with a double-pitched profile.
