Chestnut Court

Chestnut Court is a house located on Vicarage Road in Bishopsworth, Bristol, dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed from squared, coursed Lias rubble with limestone dressings, featuring brick stacks and interlocking tiles, while the rear extension has pantiles and the dormers are covered with slate. The house has a double-depth plan and is designed in an early Georgian style, standing two storeys tall with an attic and a five-window range.

The front of the building is symmetrical, showcasing rusticated quoins, a moulded plinth, a cyma string course, a cornice above the window lintels, and coping at the parapet. The central doorway is topped with a deep, semicircular canopy supported by volute brackets. The windows are adorned with bolection architraves and cyma cills, featuring flat Lias arches above the ground floor windows and the second window from the left on the first floor. The lower windows are boarded, while the first-floor windows have 6/6 pane sashes set in recessed frames. Above the second and fourth windows, there are two small hipped dormers with casements, and the building has rendered stacks. To the left, there is a 20th-century extension, and at the rear, there are three extensions from the 18th and 19th centuries. The interior was not accessible at the time of the survey.
