Eagle House

Eagle House is a substantial house built in 1613 for Robert Bell and restored in 1887 by T.G. Jackson. The building is constructed of brick, largely stuccoed, with a tiled pitched roof extending to a parapet. It is three storeys high, with a basement, and has three bays.

The central entrance is defined by a depressed arch. The basement has stone mullioned windows, while canted bays flank the basement, ground, and first floors. These bays showcase exposed 17th-century brickwork between the storeys, timber mullions and transoms, and leaded lights. A corbelled oriel window sits above the central entrance, wider than the bays and featuring four rather than three lights. Moulded stucco bands delineate the storeys. The second floor is characterised by square-headed, three-light timber mullioned and transomed windows, with each bay topped by a shaped gable. Tall, moulded polygonal chimneys are situated between the bays. The rear and return elevations are similar in style. 18th-century extensions are present to the left.

The interior features a ground floor hall that extends from the front to the rear, centrally located within the house. Three original plaster ceilings remain on the first floor. The former dining room retains panelling dating from 1730, along with a hall overmantel, and other features from the 18th century. The house was once owned and restored by the architect Sir T.G. Jackson.
