Description

South Newington House is a 17th-century house constructed from regularly coursed ironstone rubble, topped with a steeply pitched stone slate roof that is laid to diminishing courses. It features two moulded stone end stacks at the ridge and left, along with stone copings. The house has a three-unit plan and stands two storeys high with a three-window range. A 20th-century doorway, inserted into a window opening on the left, has a hood mould and label stops. To the right, there is a hipped, slated bay window, a 20th-century door, and a two-light casement window. The attic includes two- and three-light casements, while the left end boasts a three-light stone mullioned window with a hood mould and label stops.

Inside, the house features stop-chamfered beams, a chamfered bressumer above the fireplace, stone flag floors, a wooden winder stair leading from the first floor to the attic, wide plank floors, and a butt purlin roof. There is a four-centred stone fireplace that is partially uncovered in the downstairs room to the left, along with a 20th-century range at the rear.
