Description
House. Built in the early 19th century, it is faced with Roman cement and has a slate roof. The house is double-depth and three storeys high. The ground floor has banded rustication, while the upper floors have channelling. A pronounced plat band separates the ground and first floors, and a less emphasised plat band sits above the second-floor windows. The flat eaves have a moulded wooden outer cornice. The roof is hipped, with rendered stacks positioned to the right and left of centre. A small central wooden cupola tops the building. The front has a regular five-window arrangement, featuring nine-pane sashes on the second floor, twelve-pane sashes on the first floor, and paned French windows with blind boxes on the ground floor. Upper-floor windows alternate with giant anthepion pilasters that rest on the lower plat band; two similar pilasters are located towards the front of the left return elevation. A semi-circular, single-storey bay extends from the front of the left gable end, featuring a plain parapet continued from the front elevation, bowed French windows with blind boxes, and keystones suggested within the rustication. A single-storey rendered addition with a balustraded parapet is attached to the right gable end. A low, two-storey addition is set at right-angles to the rear of the left gable end, rendered and with a hipped slate roof, and featuring a tripartite sash window to each floor. An outbuilding, likely a former stable block, is attached to the left of the two-storey addition and has channelled render to the facade and a hipped slate roof. The facade incorporates a parapet, plain eaves band, and a central triangular pediment. Beneath the pediment, Doric pilasters form three bays, with paired pilasters at the outer ends, under a plain band or frieze. A long brick left return elevation is also present. Inside, an early 19th-century staircase has a wreathed handrail. The rest of the interior has not been inspected.
