Description
Wormcliffe House is a house dating from the 17th century, built on a medieval core. It features rubble stone construction with a Bridgwater tile roof and coped gables, along with two ridge stacks. The house has two storeys and a west front that consists of a five-window range. The central area has a 20th-century stone-tiled cross-passage. To the left, there is a dormer gable with a 2-light recessed ovolo-moulded mullion-and-transom window, and above the ground floor, there is a 3-light ovolo-moulded window with a hoodmould. To the right, there is another dormer gable with a 2-light recessed chamfered mullion window and hoodmould over a 2-light ovolo-moulded window with a hoodmould. There is a straight joint to the right and a dormer gable with a 2-light flush bead-moulded window over a projecting ashlar single-storey range.
The left side of the house has a one-window range of 2-light flush bead-moulded windows, with a hoodmould over the ground floor window. The north end wall features a 20th-century three-light bead-moulded upper window and a bead-moulded door with a hoodmould. The south end wall has a recessed ovolo-moulded 2-light upper window and a single light below.
On the east front, the left end has a ground floor 2-light flush cyma-moulded window, followed by a straight joint and a dormer gable with 2-light flush bead-moulded windows with hoodmoulds on both floors. There is a central stone-tiled lean-to with a 2-light window and a chamfered inner doorcase. To the right, there is a two-window range with 2-light bead-moulded windows above and 2-light windows with hoodmoulds below, one ovolo-moulded and one bead-moulded.
Inside, the house contains a Tudor-arched stone fireplace with a keystone backing onto the cross-passage, as well as a large timber-lintel fireplace to the south. The house is marked on F Allen's map of 1630 as Worms Cliffe.
