Description
Dene House is a house dating from the 17th century and early 19th century, constructed of brick with a 20th-century tiled roof. It has two storeys and attics, featuring seven bays. The three central bays are symmetrical around a central six-panelled door, which is set within an early 19th-century Tuscan stone portico that has been recently added. To the right, there is a two-bay addition built in an identical style. The windows are twelve-pane sashes with gauged flat lintels. To the left, two additional bays were added around 1910, also in a similar style. The house has a gambrel roof with three flat-roofed dormers that contain twelve-pane sashes in the central bays. There is a stack in front of the left addition and two more stacks at the rear. Inside, there is a late 16th to early 17th-century stone fireplace in the dayroom to the right of the entrance hall, and a marble fireplace in the left extension, both of which have been recently built-in.
