Description
Butterfield House is a rectory, now a house, built in 1867 by William Butterfield. It is constructed of rock-faced limestone ashlar with ashlar dressings and features red machine tile roofs with coped verges on carved stone kneelers. The building is designed in a Free Tudor Gothic style and has a double-depth plan with a cross-wing. It stands two to three storeys high, showcasing a moulded eaves cornice and a ground-floor band on the main range, along with a coped parapet on the flat-roofed range to the right.
The fenestration is irregular, featuring segmental-headed sash windows, some of which are paired, located on the left and centre of the main range, including a hipped eaves dormer in the centre. An internal staircase to the right is illuminated by a rectangular tier of three mullioned windows, with the upper window having cinquefoil-headed top-hung casements, a blind section in the middle, and fixed lights at the bottom. There is a prominent ridge stack to the left of the dormer and an external end stack to the right, both with projecting capping.
The projecting gable to the right contains a moulded segmental-headed paired sash window on the first floor and a window with blind plate tracery on the ground floor. The entrance is through Tudor-arched boarded double doors with decorative strap hinges, located in a two-storey, T-shaped, flat-roofed range at the angle to the right. The parallel rear range is similar to the front and includes ridge stacks. Inside, the original staircase rises to the attic and features slender balusters on an open string, with panelled doors throughout.
