Description
Prospect House is a house from the early 19th century, likely with a core dating back to the 17th or 18th century. It is timber-framed and plastered, featuring gables made of painted brick. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has internal gable chimneys, one made of 18th-century red brick on the right and the other of 19th-century gault brick. The building has two storeys and attics, with four windows that have small-pane sashes. On the ground floor, there are a pair of flat-roofed early 19th-century splayed bays with sash windows. The entrance is a glazed mid-20th-century porch with small panes and a fully-glazed door.
