Wootton House

Wootton House is a country house set in landscaped grounds, dating from around 1765 with later additions from the late 19th century. The main range, which is 18th century, is located to the south, while wings were added to the north-east and north-west. The building features brick walls in Flemish bond with rusticated stone quoins, a slate-hung central bay that rises to full height, two stone plat bands, and a moulded cornice. The hipped slate roof is low and set behind a parapet. There are brick stacks from around 1900 at the east and west parapets, each topped with moulded stone cornices.

The south elevation has three storeys and five windows, with the central bay being half-octagonal. The windows are sashes with moulded flush window architraves, and there is a French window at the centre of the ground floor. The glass used is crown glass. To the left, there is an orangery, now converted into a swimming pool, which dates from the 19th century. This section is made of brick with stone surrounds for the French windows, and features a dentil cornice and a brick parapet above, with stone urns at the corners.

The east elevation has a brick facing and a stone porch from around 1900, which includes a Gibbs surround and a pediment above. Inside, the ground floor rooms are adorned with restrained plasterwork, and there is a marble fireplace with yellow Siena marble flutings. The staircase features a mahogany handrail and turned balusters, and there are mahogany doors throughout. The interior also includes Chinese wallpaper, an imitation from around 1880, created by students from Slade.
