Description
The Old Well House is a house that underwent 18th century remodelling of a 17th century building. It is constructed of rubble stone, squared and coursed at the front, featuring moulded coped gables and a stone-tiled roof. The house has two storeys, with a front that includes a five-window range of long recessed ovolo-moulded two-light windows, while the first floor has a blank centre. There are raised quoins and dripcourses on both floors, with the lower dripcourse forming a Tudor-arched hood over a plain central doorcase. Voussoirs are present above the ground floor windows, positioned above the dripcourse.
On the left side, there is a 19th century single-storey addition that contains a two-light mullion window. The rear of the main range features a first-floor three-light ovolo-moulded window with a hoodmould. The rear wing has a chamfered doorcase on the north side, a 20th century window above, and a curved stair projection to the right. The south side has a four-light first-floor recessed ovolo-moulded window and a four-light ground floor flush chamfered mullion window. Inside, there is a flush Tudor-arched fireplace located in the ground floor north room of the main range.
