Description
The Chantry is a semi-detached house, largely dating from the late 18th century, with origins in the late 17th century. It is constructed of limestone ashlar to the front, with dressed limestone returns, and has a tiled roof punctuated by gable end brick stacks and coped verges. The house is two storeys high and has a three-window front. A central six-panelled door is set within a moulded architrave, topped by a flat stone hood supported on consoles. Flanked on either side are plate glass sash windows. The first floor features a central four-pane sash window in a moulded architrave with a keystone, and twelve-pane sash windows on either side. A moulded stone eaves cornice runs along the top of the front elevation; the attic has two hipped dormers with two-light casements. The rear elevation incorporates twelve-pane sashes and a matching moulded eaves cornice.
The interior features chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, four-panelled doors with H-L hinges, and a reeded fireplace surround with paterae. A segmental-headed cupboard, featuring a keystone, imposts and shaped shelves, is located in a room to the right of the entrance. The staircase has two turned balusters to each tread and a moulded handrail. A cellar is also present.
