Description

Southleigh is an early 19th-century building located on Potterne Road, south of the junction with Wick Lane. It is two storeys high and constructed of red brick, topped with a low-pitched hipped slate roof that features a shallow eaves cornice. The first floor has three windows, with the center one being blind. These are recessed sash windows, four panes wide, with block sills and flat brick arches. On the ground floor, there are two windows that are also four panes wide but with one pane taller, again featuring block sills and flat brick arches. The central doorway originally had a semi-circular fanlight, as indicated by the visible brick arch above the late 19th-century gabled wooden porch, which has plain bargeboards and a finial. To the northeast, there is a single-storey wing that has a low-pitched gable end slate roof and a painted band serving as a frieze across the window heads, with two windows similar to those on the main block.
