Description
Great Strode House is a detached house built in the early 18th century and early 19th century. It features dressed stone walls with a plinth and a slate roof adorned with stone gable copings and moulded kneelers. The house has coupled square stone stacks with moulded cornices, which are likely 19th-century replacements.
The building is two storeys high and has four windows, each with four-light stone mullions, moulded architraves, and hollow chamfers. There are separate labels over the ground floor windows, but none above the first floor. The front door, located to the right of centre, is from the 19th century and consists of two leaves with recessed panels. A 19th-century stone porch with a cambered parapet leads to a depressed entrance arch, which includes stone seats inside.
At the rear, there is a long service wing that is also two storeys tall and has three windows, although these have been replaced. It features stone and brick clustered stacks. Additionally, there is a second rear range built parallel to the service wing, located immediately to the east and facing the garden, which dates from the early 19th century. This range has stuccoed walls and is two storeys high, with four- and five-light stone mullions and wooden casements, as well as two-light wooden casements with marginal glazing bars. A 19th-century conservatory is attached to the front of the house at the left end, featuring stone sleeper walls, cast iron framing, and spandrels with glass in between.
