Description

House. Built around 1840, with a later 19th-century extension. The house is constructed of plastered brick with brick stacks and chimneyshafts, and has a slate roof.

The original plan was a double-depth house facing west, essentially two rooms wide and two rooms deep. Stacks are located between the front and back rooms. An off-centre front doorway leads to an entrance hall and staircase. The principal rooms occupy the front of the house, while service rooms are at the rear. The current layout is largely the result of 19th-century reorganisation. The rear block appears to be from the later 19th century, although parts may be incorporated from the earlier building.

The exterior has a front with four windows, featuring 19th-century casement windows with glazing bars. The ground floor windows are topped with segmental arches, while the first-floor windows have Tudor-style stucco hoodmoulds. The front door, located slightly left of centre, is a 19th-century fielded six-panel door behind a flat-roofed porch. The archway is flanked by narrow lights and features a stucco doorcase with pilasters and a moulded entablature including a frieze of key pattern. The deep, plain eaves and hipped roof extend to both ends. The rear block has a slightly higher roof. A modernisation on the right (south) end, overlooking the garden, dates from the mid to late 19th century and includes a canted bay window with moulded architraves containing four-pane sashes with horns. To the right of the ground floor is a French window with sidelights and overlights, also with glazing bars. The rear elevation showcases horned sashes with margin panes. A two-window front on the north side is of similar style to the front, featuring stucco Tudor-style hoodmoulds to the ground floor. At first floor level, a horned sash with margin panes is located on the left (rear).

The interior retains 19th-century joinery detail.
