Description
Evergreen is a small house and front garden walls dating to the early 19th century. The house is constructed of granite rubble with dressed granite quoins, sills, jambstones and ground floor lintels. It has a gabled scantle slate roof with brick chimneys over the gable ends, and a lower, parallel roof behind, creating a valley. Originally, the house likely comprised two rooms with a cross passage leading to a central staircase, with a larger kitchen to the left and a parlour to the right. Around the early to mid-19th century, it was extended with a parallel, shallower service range to the rear and a lean-to stable to the left.
The two-storey, nearly symmetrical south-west front has a nearly central doorway. The doorway has a four-panel door, with the top panels later glazed, and is sheltered by a 20th-century conservatory/porch. The windows are four-pane horned sashes, with the exception of a twelve-pane sash window on the ground floor to the left. The interior of the house has not been inspected. A granite-coped rubble wall encloses a shallow, rectangular garden at the front, with a central gateway aligned with the main doorway.
