Description
Wilson House is a house that dates from the early 19th century and has late 20th-century alterations. The ground floor is made of painted brick, while the first floor features irregular banded plain and fishscale tiles. It has a plain tile roof and is two storeys high with attics, topped with a gambrel roof. There are brick end stacks and two flat-topped dormers. The windows have irregular spacing and consist of three 16-pane glazing bar sashes. On the ground floor, there is a bow window at the left end with a plain hood that extends over the front door, which is half-glazed and panelled, located off-centre to the left. The interior has not been inspected.
