Description
Walmer House is a house built in the late 18th century, which was enlarged in the early 19th century with the addition of a hipped entrance block to the east and an extension to the west. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick and has a roof covered with 20th-century concrete tiles. The entrance front features two storeys and three bays, with a projecting single-storey porch that has a six-panelled door, where the upper four panels are fitted with leaded glazing. The porch has panelled reveals and a soffit beneath a projecting timber pediment supported by brackets. There are plate-glass sashes on either side of the porch, each with margin lights and gauged skewback arches. The first floor has three sashes with 6/6 glazing bars and gauged skewback arches. The hipped roof includes a wall stack on the north side.
The garden front, facing south, features sashes with margin lights. The rear wing is two storeys high with a gabled roof. It has two glazed doors flanked by an early 19th-century 8/8 sash window. The first floor has three 8/8 sashes with flush frames. A ridge stack located right of centre was originally an internal gable-end stack before the extension was added.
