Description
Berwick House is a country house that has been converted into eight flats. It was built in the late 18th century and altered in the early 19th century. The building features Flemish and English bond brickwork, with the front in header bond, a hipped tiled roof, and brick stacks. It consists of three parallel ranges and has a three-storey, five-window front with sash windows. The central entrance has double six-panelled doors with a transom light, set in a pedimented porch supported by Tuscan columns and Ionic responds, with two 12-pane sashes on either side.
On the first floor, there are two late 19th-century eight-pane sashes to the left, one 12-pane sash above the door, and two smaller eight-pane sashes to the right. The second floor features five small six-pane sashes. The building has a coved eaves cornice. To the right, there is a late 19th-century two-storey extension with sash windows. The left side has an early 19th-century three-storey bow with some blind windows, a 12-pane sash on the ground floor, a late 19th-century eight-pane sash on the first floor, and a six-pane sash on the second floor, topped with a flat roof. To the left of the bow are various sashes on the middle range and a rear 19th-century range. The right return is partly limestone with sashes on the rear ranges. The rear 19th-century range has segmental-headed sashes and two-light casements.
The interior has been mostly altered due to the conversion into flats, but some notable features remain, including good six-panelled doors with egg and dart moulded panels. The inner porch doors are double half-glazed with margin panes. Attached to the right of the house is a range of late 19th-century ashlar outbuildings with tiled roofs, which includes a stable with round-arched planked doors and a gabled loft door.
