Description
Warwick House is a house located on Burford and Upton High Street, with its front dating to around 1800, although some details reflect the local style from around 1730. The rear of the house is partly from the 16th century and has been restored. The front is made of ashlar stone, and it has a Cotswold stone roof, forming an L-plan structure. The house is two storeys tall with an attic, featuring a plinth and a cornice in the style of around 1730, below a built-up attic that has quatrefoil gutter outlets at each return.
The façade has three bays with glazing bar sash windows, and raised flat architraves with keystones on both the first and ground floors. The right-hand window on the ground floor is a pair, while the left-hand side features a small rectangular bay glazing-bar shop front with a frieze extending to both sides over a central doorway. This doorway has an arched flat surround with stone brackets supporting a former stone hood, a Y-tracery fanlight, and a six-panel door that is raised and fielded. There are also small irregular attic windows.
At the rear, there is a 16th-century timber-framed stair turret that has been rebuilt, not retaining all of the original timber. The later 18th-century stairs include a tall window, and the south front has exposed a panel of what is likely 17th-century stencil work.
