Description
Stratton House is a detached house, now serving as a home for the elderly, built around 1868 and likely designed by James Wilson. It features a limestone ashlar exterior and a slate roof that is hipped to the right, with wide bracketed cornices and moulded stacks at the returns. The building has a double depth plan with large 20th-century rear and right wings.
The exterior is two storeys high with a three-window range. It has a stone eaves cornice and a band with brackets flanking the windows, which are set in raised surrounds with paired brackets at the quoins. The first floor has six-over-six pane sash windows, with the left window located in a projecting forward-facing gabled range that includes a moulded archivolt above a pierced stone fanlight. Below this, there is a pierced parapet leading to a stone balcony supported by stone brackets.
On the ground floor of the projecting range, there is a tripartite French window that opens onto a raised platform with simple iron railings. The central and right ranges have a single-storey further projection that features a similar pierced parapet and paired brackets at the cornice, forming a balcony for the windows above. In the centre, balustraded steps lead up to a 20th-century door with a plain fanlight beneath a moulded archivolt and keystone that rises from pilasters. To the right, the parapet follows a canted bay with French windows at the front. The left return has a single-storey hip-roofed projection to the right and a full-height canted bay in the centre. The rear and right sides have 20th-century additions. The interior has not been inspected.
