Description
Osbrooks is a house dating from the 17th century, which has been extended to the right and restored in the early 20th century by Detmar Blow. It features a timber frame with herringbone brick infilling, and the 20th-century extensions are in a similar style, all topped with plain tiled roofs. The original house has a half-H shape with projecting end wings and now includes additional projecting extensions on both the right and left sides.
The building stands two storeys tall, with the extensions on the left being single storey. It has corbelled diagonal stacks on ridge plinths, with a triple stack to the left of centre and double and single stacks at the ends of the right-hand extension and on the ridge of the left-hand end. The gable ends feature queen-post trusses, and the windows are diamond-pane leaded casements, with one window on each floor of the left and right gables.
There is a gabled square bay that projects slightly from a large gabled bay to the right of centre, which contains a three-light diamond-pane window on the first floor and a six-light mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor. To the left of centre, there are two two-light windows under the eaves on the first floor and one three-light window on the ground floor.
A central gabled porch is present, which is single storey and features turned balusters over plinth walls on the sides, along with a studded door. To the left, there is a single storey range with a gable window and a gable over a diamond-pane window on the return wall. To the right, a two-storey range includes a square-bay motif under a gable and a larger scale porch with another door in the angle with the old house.
At the rear, there are triple diagonal stacks to both the left and right. The building has galleted sandstone blocks and plinth walls, with moulded brick-on-edge plat bands over the ground floor. Some of the rear windows retain old glass and original frames.
