Description
Misleham is a house dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with alterations made in the mid-to-late 19th century. The building features fragments of timber frame and is primarily constructed of red brick with occasional grey headers in Flemish bond. It has a plain tile roof and stands two storeys tall, with gable end stacks. The front facade has a regular arrangement of three windows, consisting of two tripartite sashes and a central sash. On the ground floor, there are two canted bay windows. The central door is made up of four fielded panels and has top lights, framed by a doorcase with plain pilasters, a frieze, and a short flat hood.
There is likely an integral central rear wing that was extended to the rear in the early 19th century, featuring a red brick ground floor and a tile-hung first floor, as well as a right-side extension in brick from the 20th century. A short left rear return wing is also present. Inside, there are fragments of timber framing, and the ground floor room to the right has a moulded cornice. The roof has staggered butt-purlins made from re-used timbers, including some from a smoke-blackened crown-post roof.
