Description

Gidley House, originally known as Gidley Arms Inn, is a house that was later used as an inn and has now reverted to being a house. It features a beam in the roof dated "1826" and has undergone some internal refitting in the 20th century, along with a large 20th-century addition at the rear. The exterior is constructed from coursed and squared local rubble, arranged in alternating thick and thin bands, with deep eaves, a hipped slate roof, lead ridges, and very large end roughcast stacks.

The house has a symmetrical two-storey design with three bays. It includes 16-pane sash windows, which are large on the ground floor and slightly smaller on the first floor, with rubble voussoirs above the flat-arch heads. The central entrance features paired 20th-century glazed doors that match the style of the house. The left side of the building has two 2-light wooden mullioned-and-transomed windows.

Inside, despite some refitting, the house retains much of its original joinery, including doors, architraves, and a dog-leg staircase with stick balusters, a moulded handrail, and a turned newel at the bottom. The drawing room and hall display simple Regency plasterwork, cornices, and ceiling centres.
