Description
Southbank is a house dating from the early 18th century, with alterations and extensions made in the late 18th to early 19th centuries. It is constructed from coursed squared marlstone with ashlar quoins and features a concrete plain-tile roof with stone-and-brick gable stacks. The building has a two-unit plan that has been extended to form an L-shape and consists of two storeys plus an attic.
The front of the house has an irregular three-window arrangement, with a 20th-century panelled door that is approached by semi-circular stone steps. Flanking the door are 16-pane sash windows, while the first floor features 18th-century leaded casements with arrangements of three, two, and three lights. The steep-pitched roof has stone gable parapets and includes two 20th-century roof dormers. The gables are fitted with small casements. The rear wing, which extends from the left, has a shallower roof and 12-pane sash windows. The interior has not been inspected.
