Description
Dolphin House is an 18th-century house that features cladding over an older core. It is constructed of galleted sandstone with brick dressings, has tile-hung gables, and a parallel range of tiled roofs. The building stands two storeys high on a brick plinth, with moulded brick eaves at the roofline. There are stacks located at the end right of the front range and the end left of the rear range. The house has three bays, with leaded casement windows on the first floor set beneath gauged brick heads, and two larger casement windows on the ground floor. The central entrance consists of a four-panel door beneath a dentilled flat hood supported by fine scroll volutes, with a traceried transom light above.
