Description
Katherine Low Settlement is a symmetrical house built in the first third of the 18th century. It is five bays wide and three stories tall, constructed of brown brick with stone dressings and quoined corners. The ground floor features a door that is recessed behind a surround of Doric piers, which support a frieze and cornice. All floors have windows with shallow cambered heads, and the first floor includes a cillband. The building is topped with a crowning entablature, and the stacks have oversailing courses. There is a single-storey extension facing the street, which is similarly detailed, featuring one blind window and one glazed window, along with an offset entrance bay that has its own separate entablature. The listing does not include a late-19th century extension.
