Alvescot House

Alvescot House is a late 18th-century house, built on the site of earlier structures to the rear. The front of the house is constructed of limestone ashlar, while the remainder is of coursed rubble. It has stone slate roofs, with stone gable copings on the front section and two rebuilt brick chimneys. A rear wing has an ashlar chimney. The building is in an L-shape, with a two-storey, four-bay front, where the outer bays are gabled and slightly projected. The front has a projecting plinth and a band course marking the first floor. Large sash windows with thin glazing bars fill the ground and first floors. A 20th-century wooden attic window is in the left gable. The left side of the front has a half-glazed door with a radiating fanlight, set within a flush, semi-circular stone arch with a keyblock. An arched stair window is on the right side. The rear wing, of one and a half bays, has irregular window placement, featuring reused 17th-century stone surrounds to the stair windows; the lower stair window retains a stone mullion. Two gabled dormers light the rear wing's roof. The rear elevation has irregular gables that reflect the earlier construction, but with altered window placement. The upper windows have dressed stone surrounds with raised keyblocks and raised blocks at the middle of the jambs. A small, blocked roundel is visible in the attic of the left gable.
