Description

Park House is a large house with adjoining cottages and outbuildings, dating from the early to mid-19th century, with some parts of the outbuildings from the late 17th to early 18th century. The building is constructed of plastered rubble, with some cob in the outbuildings, and features rubble stacks with brick chimney shafts and slate roofs.

The house has a gable-end, two-room double depth design facing south, with a central staircase plan. To the right (east) are two north-facing one-room plan cottages, and to the left (west) is an L-shaped stable and outbuilding that returns around a rear courtyard. The house is two storeys high and has a three-window front, with stucco clasping pilaster strips and a plinth. The central entrance features a six-panel door with an early 20th-century Portland stone porch that has plain piers, block caps, and a moulded entablature. There are 16-pane sash windows on either side of the door and a central 12-pane sash on the first floor. The moulded cornice has dentils.

The rear elevation includes a tall round-headed sash window for the stairs, flanked by 16-pane sashes. Inside, the property retains original plasterwork and joinery. The north front of the cottage also has a three-window design with 12-pane sashes. The west wing of the outbuildings, which faces the courtyard to the east, features a loading bay at the left end and a four-light pine mullioned window with iron stanchion bars and leaded glass, likely from the 18th century, above large double doors. Another 18th-century four-light window with leaded glass is located on the south face. The interior includes possibly reused chamfered and step-stopped beams, and the roof has A-frame trusses with pegged lap-jointed collars. The 19th-century stables at the rear of the outbuildings have a corrugated iron roof and contain original stalls and fittings.
