Priston Place

Priston Place is a house dating from around 1820, possibly incorporating earlier elements. It is constructed of ashlar and coursed rubble with freestone dressings and has slate roofs. The main block features a garden elevation with two storeys and three windows. The ground floor has two-light cross windows with pointed heads and multipane casements that include gothick tracery beneath hoodmoulds, while the central window has three lights. The first floor has two-light chamfered mullion casements under hoodmoulds, and the central bay slightly projects forward beneath a shallow, thinly detailed pediment, with a cornice and low parapet.

On the entrance elevation, there are three similar first-floor windows, with the left window being blank. The central flat porch has a parapet, with storm doors flanked by two lights on each side, all under a hoodmould. To the right, the ground floor features a three-light mullion window with a central sash under a hoodmould. The rear elevation of the main block has a 20th-century 15-pane window on the ground floor and a two-light casement on the first floor, with oversailing eaves.

There is a lower, two-storey office wing with four windows, all two-light casements with chamfered mullions. The ground floor includes two pointed arch doors that flank a segmental-headed stable entry. A further single-storey wing has a plain porch set back behind a pointed gateway and one sash window. At the rear of this and the offices, there is a lean-to conservatory that is fenestrated like the front. The interior has not been inspected.
