Description

Greendale is a substantial detached house from the early 19th century, possibly incorporating an earlier structure. It features a blocked stucco exterior and a gabled-end slate roof. The house has an L-shaped plan with rear extensions, making it a double-depth house. In 1839, the intersection of the two main ranges was occupied by a polygonal building, which has since been replaced by a conservatory. The main stairs are located at the rear of the entrance hall and the house is two storeys high.

The front of the house has a symmetrical arrangement of bays, consisting of a 2:1:2 bay range, with the central bay slightly projecting and topped with a pediment. There is a moulded cornice throughout. All windows are 12-pane hornless sashes, with those on the ground floor featuring shaped blind boxes. The central tripartite doorway has a panelled door beneath a rectangular traceried fanlight, flanked by 4-pane sashes. The cornice includes a dentil frieze with triglyphs and pilasters, and there are pilaster quoins. The house has two external end stacks, with the right stack possibly indicating the presence of an older core. Both end gable walls are treated as pediments.

To the right, there is a later 19th-century double-depth wing, which is set well back and has separately gabled components, forming a 2-window range with 12-pane hornless sashes on both floors and an internal end stack. The left-hand rear wing has a gable with a pediment, positioned well back behind a hipped-roofed conservatory. The left side elevation features two hornless sash windows on the first floor, with 6 panes above and 12 below, along with a balcony supported by cast iron balusters. There is also a 12-pane hornless sash window on the ground floor.

At the rear, the gable wall of the described wing and the adjoining extension both have pediments with paired console brackets. The windows are contemporary, featuring either 12 or 16 panes of hornless sashes, and there are axial stacks that are plastered.

Inside, the house boasts contemporary fittings such as panelled shutters, plaster cornices (including one in the entrance hall with an acanthus motif), doorways with panelled reveals and doors, and some doors are topped with segmental pediments. The chimneypieces are made of marble or polished limestone.
