Stuckeridge House

Stuckeridge House is a house dating from around 1820, with some interior remodelling from the 1920s and some late 20th-century changes to the windows. It is constructed of colourwashed rendered stone rubble and has a slate roof that is hipped at the ends, along with rendered stacks. The layout consists of four ranges surrounding a small courtyard, with the former kitchen range to the west and the service range to the north now converted into separate properties. The principal rooms and stair hall are located in the south and east ranges. There is no main entrance; instead, doorways on the east front face the former driveway that crosses the Exe at Chain Bridge, while doorways on the south elevation lead into the garden.

The house is two storeys tall and features deep eaves and a verandah on the south and east sides. The east elevation has a three-bay front with a lower-roofed block to the right, and it boasts an attractive seven-bay timber lattice verandah that runs the entire length of the elevation, along with louvred shutters on the first-floor windows. The ground floor has five good two-leaf glazed doors with arched openings and Gothick glazing bars, while the first floor has three two-light casement windows to the left, with plastic windows designed to mimic the existing 19th-century windows that remain in the right-hand block. The south elevation presents a five-bay front with a six-bay verandah and two garden room bays at the left end. The verandah, windows, and doors are identical to those on the east elevation, with additional garden room bays enclosed with ornate glazing bars.

Inside, little of the early 19th-century detail remains, although the layout in the south range is unchanged. One room features an early 19th-century plaster cornice, and the dining room has a decorated plaster ceiling that is likely from the late 19th or early 20th century. The stair hall was remodelled in the 1920s, featuring a Tudor-style stone chimneypiece.
