Description
Marlborough House, located at No. 67, is a late 18th-century house at the end of a row. It features a limestone ashlar front and a Bridgwater tiled roof with coped verges and stone and brick stacks at the gable ends. The house is two stories with an attic and has a symmetrical three-window front. The central door has six fielded panels and a semi-circular fanlight set in a moulded architrave with a keystone and imposts, flanked by blind sidelights. On either side of the door are paired 12-pane sash windows. There is a sill band at the first floor, where a central semi-circular headed sash window with a keystone and imposts is located, also flanked by paired sashes. The building has a moulded cornice leading to a plain parapet. The attic includes two hipped dormers with 2-light casements. At the rear, there is a two-storey wing with casements and 16-pane sash windows on the first floor.
Inside, the house features 19th-century four-panelled doors, window shutters, a grey marble fireplace, and an acanthus leaf plaster ceiling frieze in the room to the right of the entrance, while the room to the left has a convolvulus plaster ceiling frieze. The kitchen includes a chamfered square fireplace surround and a reset chamfered beam with stepped stops, as well as a 2-light recessed hollow-chamfered mullioned window in the former external wall between the kitchen and the drawing room. It is reputed that this house was part of The Old Ham Tree Inn until the 1930s.
