Description
House. Built around 1815, with 19th-century wings and subsequent alterations. Constructed of slatestone rubble with a hipped slate roof, featuring deep eaves, lead rolls to the hips and ridge, and brick chimney shafts to the left and right. The original plan comprises a double-depth house with two front rooms, each with a fireplace at the rear. A central entrance opens directly into the room on the right, leading to a stair hall and service rooms at the rear. Later additions include pavilion wings on either side; the left pavilion contains a coach house and stable, linked to the main house by a screen wall. The left pavilion also houses service rooms or accommodation, concealed behind the screen wall.
The two-story front facade has a symmetrical three-window arrangement, featuring 12-pane sash windows with external shutters. A central porch boasts granite Doric columns, half-glazed double doors with pilasters and a modillion cornice. A first-floor verandah is adorned with decorative cast-iron panels. The screen wall to the left has a central doorway with a segmental arch and keystone, flanked by blind windows with voussoirs, and a granite coping. The screen wall to the right incorporates a central single doorway with a segmental arch and keystone, along with a two-light casement window. Other windows have voussoirs, with one lengthened in the 20th century. The pavilions are also two-story, with a central doorway, a segmental-arched opening and a three-light casement window. First-floor windows feature a nine-pane light with Gothic intersecting glazing bars in a small gable, and two bowed 12-pane sashes supported by corbels. A single-story brick service room is attached to the rear of the right pavilion, behind the screen wall. The rear elevation includes 12-pane sash windows at first floor, a 20th-century casement to the left on the ground floor, and a blocked window to the right. A central ten-panelled door has an addition supported on cast-iron piers above. A central gabled dormer features a 12-pane sash. The rear of the stable pavilion presents segmental-arched carriage doors to the left and a single door to the right, with a central loading door at first floor. The rear of the left pavilion has a panelled and glazed door to the left, a first-floor door to the right, and a rear stack.
Inside, the front right room has a modillion cornice at the entrance, potentially originally an entrance hall with a panelled partition wall. The main room to the right features a plaster acanthus cornice and a central circular plasterwork design on the ceiling, with a six-panelled door leading to the service room and a reeded wooden chimneypiece with round-arched alcoves on either side. A half-glazed door with Gothic margin glazing is located at the rear of the entrance hall. The room to the left displays a fine plaster frieze and a 19th-century chimneypiece with Dutch tiles and round-arched alcoves. The stairwell at the rear has a straight staircase with stick balusters and a wreathed handrail.
