Description

Speargate is a detached house dating from the 17th century. It is constructed of rubble stone and features a stone slate roof with gable end stone stacks that have moulded cappings. The building has a three-cell plan and is two storeys high with three windows across the front. The central entrance has a 20th-century door set in a moulded square surround. To the left, there is a recessed hollow-chamfered single casement and a 4-light hollow-chamfered and roll-moulded mullioned casement with a hoodmould. To the right, there is a 3-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement with a hoodmould. On the first floor, there are three 2-light hollow-chamfered mullioned casements.

To the right side of the house, there is a lean-to extension that includes a 20th-century three-light mullioned casement. On the left side, there is a 2-storey 20th-century extension that contains a garage. At the rear, there is a blocked hollow-chamfered Tudor-arched doorway and two 2-light mullioned casements to the left. The centre features a 20th-century door and a blocked square-headed moulded doorway, while the right side has a 4-light leaded casement. The first floor includes two single-light leaded casements, a 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement, two 2-light wooden casements, and a 20th-century three-light casement. The 20th-century extension on the right has a full dormer designed in the style of the 17th century. The interior was not accessible during the survey in April 1986.
