House. Circa very early C19, and extended circa 1830. Stucco over stone. Hipped grouted scantle slate roof with brick axial chimneys over cross walls (the original side walls). Plan of 2 original rooms, now 1 room to middle and room added at either end circa 1820's-1830's, outshut with narrow service rooms and axial passage along rear plus 2- storey projection at rear left west corner with canted bay to side wall left and ridge parallel to main roof. 2 storeys. Symmetrical 1:2:1 bay south east front facing road, all early C19 hornless sashes. Central original 2-window house with 12-pane sashes has central doorway with C20 glazed door and flanking windows in round-headed stucco recesses. Projecting keystones survive from earlier form of house. Later bays adjoining at left and right have central 30-paned bowed sashes on both floors. At rear there is a segmental arched porch with fluted columns and simple entablature. 6-panel door within with fanlight over. Fanlight has 2 intersecting ogee arches. Porch and doorway are possibly resited from the front of the house when the stucco and wings were added. Interior is little altered since the early C19 with much original carpentry and joinery: panelled doors, reveals, reeded architraves with rosettes in corner blocks a Regency fireplance in left-hand room, some arches to passages, and a curious room to first floor landing under outshut with Gothic style borrowed light with hoodmould. An interesting remodelling in the early C19. The bowed windows were obviously popular in this parish in the early C19, compare: Park Vean qv, The Lawncliff Hotel qv and Newquay House qv.
