Description

Densworth House is a late 18th-century building located on the north side of Funtington Road in East Ashling. It is three storeys high and features five windows, with a façade made of rough plaster. The house has a modillion eaves cornice and a slate roof, and the glazing bars are intact. The outer windows on the first floor are designed as Venetian windows. Around 1900, two large bays were added to the ends of the ground floor, each also featuring matching Venetian windows. Additionally, there is a central porch from the same period. At the back of the house, there is an early 19th-century addition constructed of painted brick with a tiled roof.
