Belton House

Belton House is a large house, dating from the mid-19th century, now divided into four flats. It is situated set back on rising ground from the road in Weston. The house is constructed of squared limestone rubble with freestone rusticated quoins, platbands, and architraves, topped with a hipped slate roof featuring wide bracketed eaves and moulded stacks at the sides. The building follows a double-depth plan with side wings.

The main façade is symmetrical, presenting a three-window range over three storeys plus a basement. Four-pane sash windows are located at the eaves level, while eight-pane sashes are present on the first and ground floors. Platbands run across the ground and first floors. A semicircular arch tops a wide raised surround above a cobweb fanlight. The entrance features a good ornamented six-panel door with ornamental side panels, which may have previously been glazed. A single-storey left wing mirrors this semicircular arch, with radial glazing bars to a six-pane sash window. A lower three-storey right wing has a similar 20th-century window with a six-pane sash on the first floor and a blind window on the second; the roof is hipped to the right.

Inside, the central entrance hall has an open-well open-string staircase with a painted, swept mahogany handrail. The house is believed to have been built for a brewer, and the attached properties at Nos. 79-83 High Street to the right were originally workers' houses.
