Description

Nursling House is a rectory that has been converted into a private house, built in 1778, with a late 19th-century west wing added. The building features brick walls in header bond, a parapet with stone coping, and a wooden eaves cornice adorned with small vertical modillions. It has rubbed flat arches, a plain stone band at the first floor, stone cills, and a plinth. The roof is double-piled and tiled, hipped at the ends above a mansard.

The symmetrical north front has two storeys and an attic, with three windows. The windows are sashes set in reveals, and there are casements in three flat-topped dormers. The entrance is framed by a simplified Corinthian doorcase with an open pediment, featuring three-quarter plain columns with inverted-bell caps. The arched opening has panelled reveals and a fanlight with radiating lead ornament, leading to a six-panelled door, two of which are glazed.

The west wing, which is Victorian, is set back and has two storeys, with a 20th-century flat-roofed porch that includes a classical doorway. This wing is part of the rear (south) elevation, which has a low two-storey section followed by a two-storey and attic section with three windows, including a two-storeyed half-octagonal bay with sashes and a central French window. The end elevations have attached stacks, and the parapet is pierced for roof drainage, featuring four lead rainwater heads and pipes dated 1778.
