Description
Kintail is a house built in 1923 by Baillie Scott and Bereford for William Webster. It is constructed of grey red brick laid in stretcher bond, with the first floor of the wing featuring tile-hanging. The roof is covered with plain tiles. The house faces north, with a wing extending north from the east end. There is a slightly projecting two-storey lean-to that contains stairs in the re-entrant angle. The main range has a hipped roof, which continues down over the lean-to. The wing also has a hipped roof at the front, with a lower ridge. There are two brick ridge stacks, one towards the front end of the wing and another towards the left end of the main range, along with a projecting brick gable-end stack on the right.
The windows are arranged irregularly, with two casements on the first floor of the wing, one mullioned frieze window with five leaded lights under the eaves of the stairwell lean-to, and one small two-light mullioned window under the eaves above the door. There are no first-floor windows on the right end, but there is a three-light ground-floor casement. Additionally, there are two very small lights near the base of the lean-to. The left end of the lean-to extends forward along the wall of the wing into a narrow single-storey lean-to that features a two-light mullioned window. A round-headed doorway is located to the right of the stairwell lean-to, set within a later 20th-century lean-to brick porch, whose roof extends to the eaves of the main range but is horizontal beneath the mill of the 1923 two-light mullioned windows. The interior has not been inspected. The house was formerly known as Kintail Manor and originally referred to as Trunds.
