Description

Scullsgate is a house, formerly known as Scullsgate Farmhouse, located on Coldharbour Road. It dates from the 17th century or earlier and features a timber-framed structure with visible timber-framing and plaster infill on the north wall, while the rest of the building is tile hung. The house has a hipped tiled roof with two brick chimneystacks. It stands two storeys tall and has three windows facing west and four windows facing south, one of which is a 20th-century addition. The windows are casement style, and there is a doorcase topped with a gabled hood.
