Description
Corner House is a house dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, with a possible earlier core. It is constructed of red brick and has a hipped roof covered with plain tiles. The building has two storeys and features scattered fenestration, including sash windows set in recessed frames with glazing bars, and flat gauged brick arches. The doors are modern, and there is a central brick chimney stack. The north elevation extends to Daphne Road, where there is a curved brick corner and a modern extension at the right-hand end.
