Description
Norham House is a house dating from the 17th century, with an early 18th-century facade. It features a timber frame, with the ground floor constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and the first floor tile-hung in Flemish bond. The right gable end has stone on the ground floor and is tile-hung on the first floor. The house has a plain tile roof and is two storeys high, with attics and a cellar set on a stone plinth that has a moulded wood eaves cornice. The roof is half-hipped, and there is a red brick ridge stack located to the left of centre. The house has three hipped dormers and five mullioned and transomed leaded casements, with the ground floor windows featuring segmental heads. The entrance door consists of six fielded panels and is topped with a flat corniced bracketed hood, accessed by five steps to the right of centre. There is a later extension at the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
