Description
Bridge House is a house that has been converted into a veterinary hospital. It dates from the mid or late 18th century and was altered in the early 19th century. The building features solid rendered walls, with the rear and right side walls of the main section being roughcast, while the rear gable of the wing is slate-hung. The roofs are slated, except for the rear section of the rear wing, which has concrete tiles. There is an old red brick chimney on the right side wall of the main range and an early 20th-century chimney on the side wall of the wing.
The main range is double-fronted and likely double-depth, with a staircase located at the rear center. It has two storeys with a garret and a three-window range, where the center window is set in a shallow projection. The round-arched center doorway is flanked by attached Doric columns, each topped with a section of triglyphed entablature and an open triangular pediment with modillions. The windows throughout the building have plain sashes. A small moulded top cornice and parapet adorn the building.
On the right side wall, which faces North Road, there is a plain sash window on the second storey and a two-light wood casement with three panes per light in the garret. The rear wall has three windows with six-paned sashes, one on the left side of the ground storey and two in the upper storey. There is also a tall round-arched stair window featuring six over nine-paned sashes with a head that has radial bars. Part of the ground storey has been blocked by a late 20th-century addition.
The wing has plain casements on the left side and no windows on the right. The upper storey of the rear gable end includes a canted bay window, with small-paned wood casements where the upper panes form Gothic arches. The interior has been altered for use as a surgery, according to a description from 1973.
