Description

Pellor House and associated garden walls, now two houses, was constructed mostly in the early 19th century, with some elements dating back to the 18th century. The front of the house is rendered with stucco, while the rest of the walls are painted rubble construction, featuring dressed granite sills and quoins. The roofs are covered in scantle slate, with the front roof being half-hipped and featuring an ogee eaves gutter attached to a fascia board supported by moulded brackets. Two additional roofs of a steeper pitch sit over parallel wings at right angles to the rear, and at a lower level than the main roof. Stone and brick chimneys respectively rise from the gable ends of the left and right-hand wings.

The building's layout now resembles a U-shape, with two nearly equal rooms at the front, dating to the early 19th century. A through passage connects these rooms, leading to and originally linking two rooms which constitute the rear wing. The right-hand wing incorporates an earlier 18th-century house, retained as a service area, and was built in the early 19th century to match the proportions of the original.

The south front is nearly symmetrical, with three window bays. The main entrance is positioned slightly to the right of centre, above which is a window. The windows on the ground floor have 16 panes and horns, while those on the first floor have 4 panes and horns. A latticed wooden porch with Chinese influence adorns the entrance.

The west-facing wall of the 18th-century wing was remodelled in the early 19th century to create a three-window front. This wall was likely the rear wall during the 18th century. Three original early 19th-century hornless sash windows remain: a 20-pane window on the ground floor right, a 16-pane sash above it, and an 8-pane upper sash at the first floor left, the lower sash having been replaced with a single pane. Other windows have been replaced with later sashes or are 20th-century additions. The interior has not been inspected.

The garden walls are constructed of granite rubble with granite copings. The gate piers are square granite monoliths, with pointed heads on those facing the front (south) entrance, round heads on those facing the rear (north) entrance, two set back from the road, and one near the corner of the 19th-century wing.
