Description
Menherion House is a house that adjoins a row of cottages and dates from around the mid 19th century. It is constructed from granite rubble with granite dressings and features a grouted scantle slate hipped roof with slightly projecting eaves. There is a brick chimney located over the side walls. The house has a double depth plan, likely consisting of two rooms at the front that flank an entrance hall leading to a stair hall between the rear service rooms.
The exterior is two storeys high and nearly symmetrical, with a three-window front. The doorway and a window are slightly left of the middle. The original entrance features a four-panel door with an overlight, and the windows are original 12-pane hornless sashes, except for a 16-pane sash in a wider opening at the ground floor on the right side. The interior has not been inspected.
