Description
Milton Sandford Restaurant is a house that has been converted into a restaurant, built around 1840 in the Gothic revival style. The building is constructed of brick in header bond with a decorative diaper pattern and features stone dressings. It has a low pitched slate roof and a rectangular plan. The structure is two storeys high and has flanking chimneys with moulded stone tops.
The exterior includes a stone plinth, a moulded stone string course, and quoins, along with a brick cornice and an embattled parapet. The building has three bays; the outer windows on the first floor are three-light stone mullioned and transomed, while the ground floor features five-light windows. The entrance door, located beneath the central window, has moulded stone jambs and carved decorative spandrels that form a four-centred stone arch. Above the door, there is a three-light overlight and single side lights.
