Description
Coronation House is a detached house built around 1700, originally constructed as two identical units. An inscription reading "Built 1307, rebuilt 1937" is erroneous. The house has walls of dressed stone, with a patent pantile roof on the left-hand side and a Roman tile roof on the right, both featuring stone gable copings. There are three brick stacks situated at the left-hand gable, centre, and right-hand gable. The house has two storeys, with attics, and originally featured eight windows to the ground floor, each with two lights. The first floor had six windows, arranged as three, two, three, three, two, and three lights respectively. The windows have square stone mullions with bead edges and continuous moulded stone architraves, as do the door surrounds. Two continuous labels rise over the doorways. A doorway is centrally positioned on each house; the left-hand door is blocked, while the right-hand door is a 20th-century plank and muntin door, studded. The interior features mid-chamfered ceiling beams with crude filleted stops, although the rest of the interior has been substantially modernised.
