Towerhead House

Towerhead House is a house built around 1820, which incorporates reset features from the 16th and 17th centuries. The exterior is finished in stucco with a slate roof. The building has two storeys and a basement, with three windows on the main facade. The central doorway, dating from about 1860, features a two-panel door with a margin glazed overlight, all sheltered by a hood with a pediment supported by scrolled brackets. Above the door is a glazing bar sash, while the other openings are blank. The facade includes pilaster strips and a hipped roof with overhanging eaves, topped by a large central stack with a moulded cap.

On the north elevation, there are three storeys and two windows with glazing bar sashes. To the left, there is a single-storey gabled extension. At the first floor, there is a square panel displaying a moulded and painted coat of arms and the motto "Win God/Win All." The basement door is a six-panel design, with the top two panels glazed, and features a three-light overlight, which may be a reset of the original front door.

Inside, the basement is notable, possibly reflecting a resetting of features from an earlier house around 1820. It contains four doors with stopped ovolo moulded timber door frames, each topped by moulded Tudor arch stone lintels of varying designs, some with decorated spandrels. There are also two two-light chamfered mullion timber window frames situated between two basement rooms. Additionally, in the basement extension, there is a brass and lead water pump from around 1820 that is still in working order. This house is located on or near the site of a residence built by Bishop Godwin of Bath and Wells in the late 16th century.
