Description
Rey Mill House is a country house built around 1860, constructed of ashlar stone with a low-pitched, deep-eaved slate roof and panelled ashlar stacks. The house is two storeys tall and designed in an asymmetric Italianate style, featuring gables that are treated as open pediments and painted bracketed eaves.
The north and south sides, as well as the west end, display similar gables with tripartite windows on the ground floor, supported by a broad band that leads up to paired angle pilasters at the pediment angles. The first floor also has tripartite windows and a lunette in the pediment. On the north front, a projecting gable features a two-storey range with two windows of sash design to the left and a two-storey porch, which may have been altered at the top level, to the right. The porch is flanked by paired stone piers and has a 20th-century neo-Georgian hood.
The south front includes a gable to the right, where a lower window has been changed to a door. The range to the left has a broad plinth and band, with tripartite windows on each floor to the left and a large arched stair-light to the right. The east end service range has been altered on the south side in a neo-Georgian style.
