Description
Darlaston is a villa built around the 1850s, with some later alterations. The building is finished in stucco and has a slate hipped roof, featuring stacks with rendered shafts and cornices. It has a double-depth plan with a side entrance and a rear service wing.
The exterior is two storeys high, with an eaves band, a platband, and rusticated quoins at ground floor level. The entrance front is asymmetrical with two windows and includes a half-glazed door with leaded panes and a plain overlight. There is one small-pane sash window on the ground floor and two on the first floor. The garden elevation has two windows and features what are likely secondary canted bay windows with hipped roofs and moulded cornices. Notably, the pilastered entrance and octagonal conservatory mentioned in a 1975 listing description are no longer present.
The interior has not been inspected but is reported to retain some original features.
