Description
Blenheim House is an early 19th-century house located on the north side of Church Street, Watlington. The house is built of colourwashed stucco, with a gabled Welsh slate roof and a brick end stack. It follows a double-depth plan, presenting a two-storey, two-window facade. A porch, dating to the early 19th century, features cast-iron Doric columns and a six-panelled door with two glazed panels. The windows are late 19th-century three-light casements. The interior of the property has not been inspected. The building is included on the list for its group value.
