Description
Friary House is a mid-19th century house constructed of stuccoed flint and brick, with a clay tile gabled roof. It has brick gable-end and axial stacks with diagonally-set brick shafts. The house is planned with an entrance to the left of the center, and a cross-wing on the right. It is an example of Picturesque cottage style architecture.
The asymmetrical south front features two storeys and an attic. It has a gabled cross-wing on the right, a jettied gable at the center, a projecting two-storey gabled porch to the left of the center, and a gabled dormer on the left. Decorative bargeboards with finials and pendants adorn these elements. The windows are predominantly two- and three-light casements with four-centred arches, with four-centred arch statue niches on the first floor. Large French casements are positioned at the center and to the left, behind a verandah featuring thin twisted posts, four-centred arches, and a trellis frieze. A relief tablet sits above the verandah and porch. The rear elevation is flint with red brick dressings, and incorporates a 20th-century flat-roofed extension on the right. The interior has not been inspected. Friary House is a good example of an early Victorian Picturesque cottage style house.
