Winfrith House

Winfrith House is a house with origins in the 18th century, which was enlarged, likely in the 19th century. It features brick walls with a parapet only on the front elevation and brick stacks. The house has two storeys and attics. The original structure had a symmetrical plan, consisting of two rooms deep and two wide, with a central entrance and staircase. An additional bay was added to the south, relocating the doorway further south and incorporating the original entrance into the north room. There is a later kitchen wing to the north, which is one storey with attics.

The main facade now includes a raised panel door with a fanlight set in a semi-circular brick arch, framed by a stone portico with Tuscan columns and an entablature. Oval windows are positioned on either side of the door. To the north of the doorway, the ground floor features two double-hung sash windows with glazing bars, while to the south, there is a canted bay window with double-hung sashes also with glazing bars. The first floor has five double-hung sash windows with glazing bars. A moulded stone cornice runs along the base of the parapet, with a stone plinth and a stone band course at the first floor level on the original section only. The northern kitchen block has a double-hung sash window and a dormer-type extension above the lean-to roof. At the south end of the house, there is a modern single-storey extension with a flat roof that contains a loggia and a garage.

Inside, the north front ground floor room features a late 18th-century moulded plaster cornice and dado, along with a contemporary hob grate in the "Adam" style. The main rear ground floor room showcases re-used mid-18th-century panelling with raised panels, a cornice with dentils and egg and tongue ornament, and a dado and skirting with carved ornament. The door has an eared architrave with carved consoles and there is a "secret" door in the north wall. The room also includes a good fireplace surround and overmantel with carved console "supporters." There are two later bay windows in the rear wall, featuring double-hung sashes with glazing bars. A late 18th-century cut string stair with square balusters, a wreathed handrail, and carved spandril brackets completes the interior.
