Description
The Old Bakehouse is a house built around 1845, likely designed by J. Thomson for J. Neeld of Grittleton. It is constructed from squared rubble stone and features a slate hipped eaves roof with a central stack. The building has one and a half storeys, a central gable, and unmoulded mullion windows, including a two-light window above and a three-light window at the centre of the ground floor. There is a depressed-arched flush porch on each side of the building. The house stands on a raised plinth. Although it is not illustrated in J. Thomson's 1845 designs for Alderton, a single cottage is indicated on the village plan.
