Description

Pelham House is a 17th-century building located on Low Street in Bardwell. It features a timber-framed and plastered structure with two storeys. To the right, there is a red brick Dutch gable and chimney stack, along with a two-storey lean-to extension. The main range has a thatched roof, while the extension is covered with slates. An internal chimney stack has a gault brick shaft. The main range is divided into two sections, with a higher roof line to the left of the stack. The building has early 19th-century sash windows, primarily with small panes on the ground floor and small-paned casements on the upper floor, along with an elliptical window above the entrance. The entrance features an off-centre six-panel door with applied mouldings.
