Milton House

Milton House is a house dating from the 17th century or earlier, significantly remodelled in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of solid rendered walls with a slate roof. A large, rendered chimney projects from the front wall to the right of the front door, featuring offsets. A further chimney is located on the left end wall, and another at the front right corner. The house was originally likely arranged with three rooms and a through-passage. It is two storeys high, with a front facade of four windows. The doorway is sheltered by a wooden porch with square, fluted columns and an entablature topped by a triangular pediment. The door itself is six-panelled, with the upper two panels glazed. The windows are 2-light wooden casements, each containing three panes. Upper-storey windows rise through the eaves cornice to form dormer gables, with fish-scale slate hanging above and shaped bargeboards. A street sign, made of blue and white glazed tiles and reading "MILTON STREET", is fixed to the left-hand end of the upper storey. A deep, flat eaves cornice runs around the building. The right end wall features an upper-storey casement window matching those at the front. A decorative scrolled weather vane sits atop the gable. The interior was altered, although a 1975 description notes the retention of some ceiling beams, and the roof has been renewed.
