Description

Church House dates to around 1720 and is constructed of chequered brick, with a gabled roof covered in stone tiles and brick stacks at each end. The front elevation facing east has two storeys, a false attic, and five bays. The central bay is flanked by canted bays, with lower two-storey bays at each end, creating a design that resembles a stage set from the Georgian period. String courses run at both floor levels. The attic is given the appearance of windows through blind, elliptical oculi, painted black with white crosses. A segmental-headed six-pane sash window illuminates the central section above the entrance, and a similar four-pane sash is positioned above a round-headed sash window to the north bay. A false round-headed window is present on the south bay. The canted bays contain eight-pane sashes. A late 18th-century Tuscan Doric porch shelters the door frame, which features a moulded architrave and a pulvinated frieze above. The porch contains a modern door with two rectangular panes. A single-storey, 20th-century brick extension in a neo-Georgian style is attached to the north side, featuring round-headed windows. Further, irregular extensions from the 19th and 20th centuries extend to the rear. The interior is unremarkable.
