Redenham House

Redenham House is a country mansion set in a parkland area, built in the early 19th century. The building features stone walls on the three main facades, with brick and render elements, and is topped with hipped slate roofing. It showcases a classical design in a plain Greek style, with a square plan and a wing on the north side.

The south elevation is symmetrical and made of Bath stone, rising two storeys with a layout of two, three, and two windows. It has a parapet with moulded coping, and pineapple vases at the corners and ends of the slightly projecting centrepiece, which includes a moulded cornice and a moulded cell band at the first-floor plinth. The sash windows are set in reveals, with the lower windows extending to floor level.

The west elevation, which serves as the entrance, is also symmetrical and consists of two storeys and an attic with a window arrangement of two, one, and two. It features similar detailing to the south elevation, including a slightly projecting centrepiece and two flat-roofed dormers behind the parapet. The ground-floor sash windows have normal cill levels. An Ionic porch with two coupled columns, two pilasters, and a half-glazed wide opening containing double doors adds to the entrance's appeal. The porch has simplified Greek-style details and a blocking course.

The east elevation has five windows and is mostly symmetrical, except for one ground-floor window that is centered between two upper windows on the south side, maintaining similar detailing. The north elevation, constructed of brickwork, is symmetrical and features two storeys and an attic with plain walls, except for a large round-headed staircase window in the middle of the recessed centre. The west side is obscured by the north wing, while the ground-floor is hidden by a 20th-century service block topped with a balustraded terrace. The wing consists of two storeys above a basement, which has access to a yard on the west side. The roof ridge is below cornice level, and the walls are rendered with regular fenestration featuring sashes and garage entrances in the basement.

Inside, the house retains its original palatial appearance, including an entrance hall, a large staircase hall, and main rooms adorned with plasterwork, doorcases, and fireplaces.
