Description
Vale Place is a house, likely built around 1795. It features a red brick structure with a gault-brick facade and a steeply pitched hipped roof covered in machine tiles. The exterior has two stories and a three-window front. At the center, there is a portico porch supported by two reeded and fluted Doric columns that rise to a flat entablature. Steps lead up to half-glazed double-leaf doors. On either side of the entrance, there are 6/6 unhorned sash windows, each set under gauged skewback arches and located within shallow arched recesses. The central first-floor sash window is similar, while the outer ones have 4/4 glazing bars; all three first-floor window recesses are segment-headed. The house features a dentil eaves cornice. To the right, there is a single-storey bay with a ramped parapet, which includes a 6/6 horned sash window with a gauged skewback arch. The interior has not been inspected.
