Description
No. 3 Pring's Court is a house dated 1783, with alterations from the mid-19th century, likely a remodelling of an earlier structure. It features solid rendered walls, with a particularly thick front wall, and a slated roof. There is an old red-brick chimney on the left gable wall. The house has two storeys plus a garret and is three windows wide. The central doorway is segmental-arched and flanked by pilasters and a cornice, although the rest of the entablature is missing. The door has six panels, with the bottom two flush and the top two now glazed, and it has panelled reveals. The window frames are plain 20th-century designs with transom lights, and the middle window on the second storey is blind. To the left of the second storey, there is an inset panel incised with the date 1783. The house has a deep, flat eaves-cornice and two late 20th-century dormers. Although the interior was not inspected, the right-hand ground-storey front room is known to have an early to mid-19th-century carved chimneypiece. Pring's Court is noted for containing the best-preserved group of listed buildings in Lower Brixham.
