Description
Stockwood House is an early 19th-century house with later 19th and mid-20th century alterations, originally part of St Keyna House. The external appearance is of colourwashed render with stone dressings, an ashlar coped parapet, shallow hipped slate roofs to the west and a gabled slate roof to the east with a rendered stack in the centre. Brick stacks are located on the rear parapet and south gable slope. The front garden is enclosed by a wall made of coursed rubble with ashlar copings and ashlar piers.
The house's design is Late Georgian. The original plan comprised a rectangular wing, with a late 19th-century extension and remodelling of the west front, and a conservatory added to the south-east.
The east front is two stories with an attic. It has four early 19th-century 6/6-pane sash windows to the left of a later 19th-century canted bay with similar horned sashes angled towards St Keyna House. Dormers with late 19th-century horned 2/2-pane sashes are present. The west front is three stories; a late 19th-century extension projects forward from the plane of the earlier 19th-century elevation, with the central three bays projecting and the outer bays recessed. A reset porch features paired square columns with incised fret decoration and an entablature with a Greek key fret, containing a late 20th-century panelled door with three rectangular lights. The second-floor windows are late 19th-century plate-glass sashes in plain reveals, with sills; the central right windows are narrower. A re-used early 19th-century 12-pane sash with horns sits above the porch, and a similar 8-pane sash to the right. The recessed section to the right has a re-used early 19th-century 12-pane sash to the ground floor, an 18-pane sash to the first floor, and plate-glass sash to the second floor. The recessed section to the left features mid-20th-century casement windows. The original 19th-century wing is visible to the extreme right, and has a 6/6-pane sash to the first floor, and a horned 6/6-pane sash in the gable end with kneelers.
The interior, noted in 1992, retains early 19th-century joinery and other features.
A fine late 19th-century conservatory is attached to the south-east corner with an apsidal east end. The front boundary wall has ashlar copings and two sets of square ashlar piers with moulded caps.
The building was originally within the civil parish of Whitchurch, but is now within the parish of Keynsham due to parish boundary changes. It is listed primarily for its relationship to St Keyna House and the retention of the late 19th-century conservatory.
