Bowden Hill House

Bowden Hill House is a country house built around 1850-60. It is constructed of squared ironstone with ashlar dressings, Bridgwater tile roofs, and shaped ashlar stacks. The house is two storeys and has an attic, and is designed in a Jacobean style, featuring coped shaped gables and mullion-and-transom windows.

The main front has three gables, each with a two-light mullion window. A parapet runs between the gables. Flanking the front are two-storey crenellated canted bays with 1-3-1 light windows. The ground floor centre has a single four-light window, and the first floor centre has a two-light, three-light, and two-light window. Continuous moulded courses run over each floor. A five-shaft rear stack is located to the left, and a five-shaft cross-axial stack sits on the ridge. The end gables are similar, although the right-hand gable has a single-storey projection, which is part of a demolished range. Two rear wings extend from the main body of the house, each with a shaped end gable. The north-west rear wing has a shaped gable on its west side and a projecting, flat-roofed enclosed porch in the angle behind the main range.

The interior has not been inspected. The house was likely built for H. A. Merewether Q.C., who died in 1877, and was later owned by H. Harris in the 1880s.
