Description

Heronfield is a house that likely dates from the late 17th century and was extensively restored in the late 19th century by the North Court estate. It is constructed from Isle of Wight stone rubble and features a tiled roof with a brick chimneystack. The building has an L-shaped layout, is one storey high with attics in the gable end, and includes three windows. There is one dormer window with a curved tiled surround, and the house has 19th-century stone mullioned windows. Additionally, there are two obtusely arched doorcases, one of which is blocked, and the structure has a deep plinth.
