Description

Ascerton House is an early 19th century, two-storey house located on Temple Street. The building is stuccoed and has been altered over time. It features a gable end slate roof and a four-window front, which includes a later addition of a ground floor bay and a trellis verandah. The first floor casement windows originally had decorative glazing bars, but these have been replaced with plain ones. Hood moulds are present above the windows.
