Description

Langdown House is an 18th-century house that was altered in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of red and blue brick and features a plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a moulded wooden eaves cornice along the hipped roof, which has stacks on both the left and right sides, as well as two gabled dormers. On the first floor, there are three margin light sash windows, while the ground floor has two, all with segmental heads. All windows, except for the central first-floor window, are fitted with shutters. The central entrance door has six panels and is adorned with pilasters, an entablature, and a pediment. There is a low shop wing attached to the left side of the house, which is noted as having no special interest.
