Description
The Cleave House is a house dating to circa 1740-50, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and the 20th century. It is constructed with a rendered and lined exterior and has a slate roof. The house follows a double depth plan, featuring two front rooms, a central entrance passage, and a stair hall to the rear left. A rear service wing extends behind the central passage, and to the right.
The building is three storeys high and has two bays. The ground floor has a 20th-century door with a 19th-century cornice on consoles. It also features four-pane sash windows to the left and right. The first floor has a four-pane sash to the left and a canted bay with plate-glass sashes to the right, topped with a hipped roof. The second floor has three four-pane sashes.
Inside, the central passage contains two-panelled doors on both the left and right sides. The front left room contains cupboards with shaped shelves and fielded panelled doors with H-hinges and round scrolled heads. The room to the right has a cupboard with a half-glazed door and a 20th-century fireplace with a deep recess to the right, behind the flue. A segmental-headed archway leads to the rear of the passage, and a dog-leg staircase rises to the rear left. The first floor has two front rooms combined into one, with cupboards similar to those on the ground floor. Two-panelled doors are located on the second floor.
