Description
This building comprises a mansion, now divided into three separate dwellings. It was constructed in 1828 and subsequently subdivided around 1973. The building is constructed of red brick with hipped slate roofs and several brick stacks.
The entrance front has two storeys and three bays. A full-height, pedimented porch projects from the centre, featuring paired pilasters on each floor; the inner pilaster on the upper floor is fluted. The porch contains a half-glazed door and a 6/6 horned sash window on the first floor. Flanking bays have one sash window on each floor, set within stuccoed architraves, with various combinations of glazing bars. To the left of the entrance front is a two-storey wing with five bays. This wing has a central doorway and 6/6 horned sash windows to the ground floor, with 3/6 horned sashes to the first floor; all windows have hoods.
The right return of the building has two storeys and three bays, with the centre bay gabled and projecting. The ground floor of the projecting bay has a bay window, and above is a tripartite sash window. A bay to the right has a conservatory with a hipped roof on the ground floor; otherwise, the flanking bays have one horned 6/6 sash window to each floor.
The interior features a cantilevered staircase with stick balusters, which have rounded corners. There is an apsed upper landing beneath a circular lantern.
