Description
Guston Court is a house with an early 17th century core that was rebuilt around 1700. It features red brick in English bond, particularly at the rear, and has a plain tiled roof. The building consists of two parallel ranges and is two storeys high with an attic, set on a plinth. It has a brick eaves cornice and a hipped roof with two hipped dormers, as well as stacks on both sides. The windows are regularly spaced, with two 20th century wooden casements on each floor; the ground floor windows have segmental heads. There is a central blank panel on the first floor and a central early 20th century wooden and glazed hipped porch, which includes a panelled door and a traceried rectangular fanlight. At the rear right, there is an earlier 17th century two-storey gabled range with a kneeler, featuring one wooden casement and a hipped single-storey extension. Inside, the house has inglenooks with coved heads and moulded joists with run-out chamfers.
