Tar Wood House

Tar Wood House is a house with a rear range dating to 1724, a front range from the late 18th or early 19th century, and a right wing added around 1900. The house was remodelled around 1900. The construction is of squared and coursed limestone with ashlar dressings, and it has a gabled stone slate roof. A brick section is present at the left end, and there are internal brick stacks.

The main front of the house has a symmetrical three-window design, with two storeys and an attic. The front range features relieving arches and timber lintels over a half-glazed door and tripartite sash windows added around 1900. Stone lintels are above the early 19th-century eight-pane first-floor sashes, and there are three gabled roof dormers. The right wing, built around 1900 using matching materials, has sashes in ovolo-moulded and mullioned stone frames. A brick stack stands on an open pediment on the right side wall.

The earlier rear range, constructed using similar materials, has segmental brick arches. A c.1900 outshut incorporates a porch and Art Nouveau plasterwork. Internally, the house includes stairs, dados, and fireplaces dating to around 1900. The rear range has an early 18th-century collar-truss roof.
