Bighton House

Bighton House is a small country house dating from the early 19th century, with an addition from around 1844. It is constructed of yellow brick and flint, featuring brick dressings, and has a slate roof. The main block, built in 1844, is two storeys high and consists of five bays by five bays. This is attached to a three-bay by three-bay block from around 1820, along with a late 19th-century service block that is also two storeys and measures three bays by three bays.

The garden front of the main block has five bays and features large, low-silled 15-pane sash windows with brackets and triangular pediments arranged in a 1.2.3.2.1. style. Above these, there are 12-pane sashes set in architraves, with every other one lugged. The second floor has blank attic panels and a large rendered cornice, with a parapet that includes two sections of balustrade. The centre block displays three 12-pane sashes with gauged-brick arches, and a carriageway that has been converted into a French window with a wide cambered gauged-brick arch. The entire facade is framed by a raised brick architrave and features a raised band at the first floor.

On the first floor, there are two 12-pane sashes and one thin 8-pane sash, topped by an architrave, a stone cornice, and a short parapet with stone coping. The late 19th-century block has three 20-pane sashes, along with a 12-pane sash and a tripartite sash above.

Inside, there is a small entrance vestibule that leads to a full-height oval staircase hall with coved ends and curved doors to the other wing. The hall features a screen with arched niches at the first-floor level and a glass cupola.
