Cliddesden Down House

Cliddesden Down House, formerly known as the Rectory, dates from the 18th century to the early 19th century. This building stands two storeys tall with an attic and features a symmetrical front with one storey south wing. It has a hipped slate roof topped with a pediment at the center and a narrow brick dentil cornice. The walls are made of red brick in Flemish bond, with pilasters marking the centerpieces, a first-floor band, and a plinth. The south wing has a parapet with a moulded stone cornice and rubbed flat arches. The windows are sashes set in exposed frames, and the pediment includes a circular window in the tympanum, featuring radiating and uneathed glazing. The heavy plain doorway is adorned with an open pediment, wide plain pilasters with simple caps, a semi-circular fanlight, and a six-panelled door. Inside, there is an 18th-century staircase.
