Description
Key House is a house that has been converted into offices, built around 1830, with a 20th-century extension on the left. The original structure is made of yellow stock brick and features a hipped slate roof, while the extension is also constructed of yellow brick with a matching slate roof. The building is two storeys high with attics and includes a basement in the left half of the original range, which projects forward to create an L-shaped plan.
The original house consists of three bays and has end stacks. On the first floor, there are three six-pane, glazing-bar sash windows, and below them are two similar windows, all set under gauged-brick, cambered heads. The central entrance features a door with six fielded panels, framed by an architrave surround and topped with margin lights in the overlight. A Doric porch with two front columns and two rear pilasters enhances the entrance, adorned with a fluted frieze and oval foliate panels at the ends and center above. Additionally, there is one basement window on the left side and two windows on each floor of the extension.
