Compton

Compton is a house, now divided into two residences, built around 1800, with extensions from the late 19th century and alterations from the early 20th century. It is constructed from limestone ashlar and features Welsh slate roofs. The original main house is now known as Lambridge Lodge, while Compton is a conversion of the former service range of this previously isolated semi-rural property.

The building has a double depth plan with projecting wings on both the right and left sides. It stands two storeys high, with an attic only in the central part of the main house. The street-facing side has three windows and a central entrance with a roofed path leading to the gate. Most windows are six-over-six sashes, except for a modern casement with top lights that opens inwards on the first floor to the right. There is a string course at the level of the first-floor sills and a small central dormer with four-over-four casement windows. Ashlar stacks are located at both ends of the ridge.

The right wing is lower and has a blind rear elevation, indicating it is single depth. It features a platband at the first-floor level, along with a cornice and parapet. The left wing is slightly taller and is partially obscured by a projecting wing that likely dates from the late 19th century. This projecting wing has a blind wall facing the entrance of Lambridge Lodge, while the street wall includes a single plain sash window on the first floor.

The garden elevation has been more altered, with a canted bay added to the ground floor of the main block and an additional room added to the front of the wing, both from the early 20th century. The upper floor of the main block has six-over-six sashes, but the central window features a blind recess with remnants of painted glazing bars. The building also has a cornice, parapet, and ashlar stacks at both ends of the ridge. The interiors have not been inspected.
