Description

The Clock House is an early 18th-century house, remodelled in the late 18th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick with flared headers, limestone quoins and storey bands, and has an old tile roof and brick stacks. The building has a two-unit plan and is two storeys plus an attic, with a three-window front. A 18th-century six-panelled door is set within a late 18th-century surround featuring a broken pediment, Neo-classical brackets and decoration, and surmounted by a Neo-classical fanlight. Late 18th-century sash windows are present throughout, some set within bow fronts with paired sashes. A pedimented parapet incorporating a bell and an 18th-century clock sits atop the building. Dormers were rebuilt around 1975, and late 18th-century rainwater goods are also visible. The roof has a gambrel shape with limestone coping, and features gable end stacks. Inside, the hall has 18th-century six-panelled doors to the left and right, leading to a straight-flight staircase with a winder, and a quarter-turn. The first floor has late 18th-century four-panelled doors.
