Description
Stone House is a house built around 1835, with an extension added in 1854. It is constructed from coursed rubble sourced from the Boughton Quarry, and the front is rendered with incised lines above a stone plinth. The house features a hipped slate roof with two brick chimneystacks. It has two storeys, three windows, and one blank space. The windows are 12-pane sashes set in reveals with stone lintels, and two of the ground floor windows have 19th-century wooden shutters. To the left, there is a six-panelled door, while the doorcase on the right side has been built out. At the rear, there is an L-wing made of stone, which has an inscription reading "NELSON BORN JULY 8TH 1848". Inside, the house contains a series of contemporary fireplaces, including a wooden fireplace with pilasters and a marble fireplace with paterae, as well as original four-panelled doors and a built-in commode. The rear kitchen features a brick and stone upper and a 19th-century cast iron range made by Haynes of Maidstone, though there is a possibility that this room was used as a workroom for the stone industry.
