Description
Orchard House, now divided, is a house dating from the early 18th century with early 19th century extensions on both the left and right. It is constructed of brown brick with red brick dressings on a rendered plinth, topped with hipped slate roofs that are obscured by parapets. The left extension features a hipped roof made of patterned tiles. The central range has three storeys, while the left extension has a two-storey bow front and the right extension is also two storeys. There are multiple ridge stacks at the ends of the central block and additional stacks on the left extension. A plat band runs across the ground floor of all three ranges and across the first floor of the central range. The building has a brick dentilled and moulded cornice at the base of the parapet.
On the second floor, there are five 19th century sash windows with gauged brick heads in gauged brick surrounds. The first floor features five 8-pane glazing-bar sash windows, with the centre window set in a shallow gauged brick frontispiece, flanked by pilaster strips and topped with an ogee-arch cut-brick head. The ground floor has four 18th century 8-pane glazing-bar sash windows. The central entrance door, which is from the 19th century, is located under a transom light and is surrounded by a rendered Doric pilaster pier with a shallow flat hood above. The left bow window extension has deep eaves and tripartite glazing-bar sash windows under gauged brick heads on each floor. The right extension features three glazing-bar sash windows on the first floor, with two below and a blocked former central entrance. The left return front has a modillion eaves cornice that wraps around the angle. Additionally, there is a garden wall attached to the right return front angle, extending towards the street.
