Description
This is a house located at 1 Meadway Close, built in 1910 to the designs of Arnold Mitchell. It is constructed of red brick, with bright orange brick used for the giant pilaster strips. The house features a two-span hipped tile roof with swept eaves and boarded soffits and stands two storeys tall. The design is bilaterally symmetrical around a recessed entrance that leads to a path connecting Meadway Close with Constable Close.
The pilasters divide the front elevation into five bays, with the center bay being the narrowest and the outer bays the broadest. The windows are leaded casement lights of an original design in various widths. A brick header course serves as a first-floor sill band, recessed behind the pilasters, which, along with the broad eaves, enhances the house's spreading appearance. The outer ranges feature polygonal bays, and there are two dormers with metal roofs flanking the entrance axis on the front roof.
The pilasters extend along the right return, where there is a rectangular bay at the rear corner. The left return has four pilasters that define the narrow end bays, along with a pair of dormers facing the rear garden and a single-storey hipped extension. An unusual roof treatment includes a stack located in the valley of the roof to the left, with a dormer abutting and filling the valley near the center range. A long axial stack is positioned to the right between the fourth and fifth window ranges. The design is particularly notable for its use of pilasters and the way the first-floor windows span nearly the entire gap between each pair of pilasters.
