Description

Waypost House is an early 18th century, two-story building with an attic and tiled roof. It has three windows on the first floor and one hipped dormer. The building is constructed of red brick, with a distinctive modillion eaves course made up of three courses of brick, the central course positioned diagonally. All the windows are modern. A single-story, modern extension is present to the south, covered with a tiled roof.
