Hurtwood Edge

Hurtwood Edge is a house built in 1910 by A. T. Bolton. It is constructed of sandstone blocks with red brick quoins and dressings, and has hipped plain tiled roofs with a lead roof over the entrance porch. The house is two storeys high, with a taller tower to the rear left where the ground slopes downwards, and a basement to the rear. Ridge stacks are located centrally, to the right of centre, and on the end of the taller range to the rear left.

The fenestration consists of casement windows. The first floor has seven windows across, set on a continuous brick sill band. There are two round windows to the first floor of the projecting right-hand wing, three roundel windows to the ground floor left, and a brick relieving arch over the basement fenestration. Five thermal windows are at ground floor centre/right, one with an extension breaking the sill band. The projecting wing to the right has two cambered-head casement windows on the ground floor.

A projecting entrance break is located to the left, featuring rusticated angle piers on the first floor that flank arched windows and a balcony on scroll brackets. A round arched entrance is situated below between similar rusticated angle piers. The left-hand return front has a square tower over a basement where the ground drops away. Brick bands mark the plinth and the sill and lintel levels of the windows. Two casements are on the ground floor, and arched sashes on the first floor, flanking casement doors with arched margin lights. A wrought iron balcony on scroll brackets is positioned in an open pediment frontispiece on the first floor. Above this is a seven-bay corbelled arcade, with two bays containing casement windows, one on either side of centre. A 'loggia' is located above, in a Tuscan style.

The rear of the house has six bays across the tower, with the centre four glazed and arched on the second floor. A casement door is located centrally on the first floor, under a glazed round-arched head, with an arched window either side. A glazed door is centrally located on the ground floor, within a columned and block rusticated frontispiece. Six first floor windows are to the left, with a three-bay balcony at the left end. Three rectangular windows are on the ground floor, a three-bay arcade is centred, and two round-arched leaded windows are positioned to the left. A terrace of coloured paving stones runs across the front.
