Description
Woodbridge House is a house built around 1800, featuring rubble side walls and an ashlar facade. It has a slate roof with end ashlar stacks and a symmetrical facade consisting of three bays, two storeys, with attics and basements. The upper floor has 16-pane sash windows, while the ground floor has 20-pane sash windows. There is a central, panelled double door with a radiating fanlight above, and the bottom panels are flush with reeded margins. A late 19th-century single-storey extension is located on the right.
Inside, the central entrance hall spans two storeys and includes a half-turn staircase with a shaped open string, square balusters, and a round newel post. One of the rooms features painted decoration that is said to be an exact copy of the original work discovered during renovation.
