Chieveley House

Chieveley House is a house dating from 1716, as indicated by the initials "P G" on the rainwater heads. It is constructed of red brick with deep, coved plaster eaves and a hipped roof covered in old tiles. The house has end chimney stacks to the left and right, and two dormers with triangular pediments. It is two storeys and an attic, with five bays. The windows are glazing bar sashes, with blank windows on the first floor of the second and fourth bays. A flight of four stone steps with iron railings leads to a central panelled door protected by a flat stone hood, which is supported by acanthus leaf brackets on either side and a central cherub’s head with wings. The house has a plinth and plat band. A late 19th-century two-storey and attic addition is present to the right, featuring a large Flemish gable. A single-storey, 18th-century block is attached to the right of this addition. The north and east fronts feature lead rainwater heads. The interior includes 18th-century panelling and a staircase.
