Description

Buckland Newton Place is a house built in the early 18th century, with a southwest wing added in the mid-19th century. The main facade is constructed of brick in Flemish bond, while the other walls are rendered or tile hung, and the roof is concealed with various stacks. The building is symmetrical, featuring two storeys and an attic with seven bays arranged in a 2:3:2 pattern. It has sash windows with glazing bars, and the central pavilion windows have segmental brick heads with keystones. The windows in the flanking bays have flat brick arches, and there are false windows to the right of the door and in the central first floor. The facade is topped with a parapet, and the central pavilion has a pediment with a false round window, flanked by brick pilasters and an urn finial. The central door is flanked by fluted rusticated Doric pilasters that support an entablature with a triple keystone and a dentil cornice. Inside, there are some 18th-century panelled features, and the open staircase has moulded and ramped handrails, a Tuscan-column newel post, and balusters designed as Tuscan columns.
