Description
Ravencourt is a rectory, now a house, built between 1853 and 1854 by Decimus Burton, with some later alterations. The building is constructed of rendered stone rubble and features a hipped slate roof with ridge tiles and stacks that rise from the rear slope, topped with rendered shafts.
The plan is a double depth layout, with the main rooms located at the front right. The entrance hall is off-centre to the right, and the principal rooms face the garden on the right side. Service rooms are situated at the rear left and front left, with a single-storey service wing at both the front and rear left, which encloses a service courtyard on the left side.
The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front, featuring a gable end to the right and a lower two-storey service wing to the left. All windows are 19th-century four-pane sashes. There is a shallow porch with a four-panelled door and sidelights, topped with a recessed segmental arch. Above the porch, there are two four-pane sashes and a round light to the left. The service wing has two storeys and three bays on the left, also with sashes. Attached to the left end is the single-storey service range, which has a stack at the front and an axial stack, with sashes on the front. To the right of the porch is a blind gable end. The right side features a canted bay that extends through two storeys, with sashes; there is a 20th-century French window to the left and two sashes on the first floor. The rear of the building, which also faces the garden, has a gable end to the left with a sash on both the ground and first floors, and two bays to the right with sashes, along with a lower two-storey service wing on the right, which also has sashes. The left side includes the service courtyard, with a sash on both the ground and first floors in the main house, as well as single-storey outhouses on each side.
The interior has not been inspected.
