Description

Ewell Castle is a building constructed in 1811, designed by architect H. Kitchen for patron Thomas Calverley. It is two storeys tall and made of Roman cement. The central tower rises three storeys and features buttresses at the corners and battlements. At the top of the tower, there is a canopied Gothic niche, while the first floor has a pointed three-light traceried window with a dripmould. The ground floor includes a battlemented arcaded and vaulted porch, as well as a porte cochere leading to the road, which has a four-centred headed entrance doorway, buttresses, and battlements. The wings on either side of the tower are slightly set back and contain three mullioned and transomed windows with dripmoulds on the first floor, and ground floor windows with four-centred headed traceries and dripmoulds. The building features battlements and octagonal corner towers that rise with battlemented tops.

The garden front is also two storeys high, made of Roman cement, and has seven sash windows with Gothic dripmoulds, along with battlements and octagonal angle towers. To the right is a 'chapel' wing with a battlemented gable adorned with pinnacles and an open bell turret, and a pointed traceried window on the first floor. The interior contains various characteristic features.
