Springwell House

Springwell House is a four-bay house of 1819 which has been altered. It is two storeys high with a basement and has gambrel roofs. The house is constructed of yellow brick with later stone dressings. A flight of stone steps leads to a Doric porch which projects from the right-hand flank wall. Ground and first floor windows are set within later aedicules, which have broken pediments and tympana filled with swagged heads. The first floor windows are set above a cillband. Above the main cornice, a balustraded parapet rises centrally to an aediculed die with a segmental shell pediment, bearing the inscription 'Springwell House' in relief. Dormers have pedimented heads. Symmetrically placed end stacks have rendered oversailing courses and square buff pots. The surrounding brick curtilage wall has a stone coping and the gate piers have stone bases, bands and pedimented caps. The interior includes a wooden staircase with shaped ends to the treads and an iron balustrade with simple scroll panels; and marble mantelpieces.
