Ashwick House Including Adjoining Barn

Ashwick House, originally a 17th-century farmhouse, has undergone significant remodelling, particularly in the 19th century. The house has a stucco front wall, with rendered surfaces to the sides and rear, and an interlocking tile roof. Three chimneys are present: two at the gable ends, one rendered and the other of rendered rubble with a dripmould, and a rear lateral brick stack. Originally laid out with three rooms and a through-passage, the plan was altered over time, with a small hall potentially changing size or position, and the front door itself moved. A gable end stack served the room at the left end, which was later used as a kitchen in the 18th century, evidenced by the presence of an oven.

Around the early 19th century, the house was remodelled, creating a large stairhall and raising the roof to incorporate an attic. In the mid-19th century, a two-storey outshut was added to the rear, behind the left end of the house. The front facade is two storeys with an attic, displaying a symmetrical appearance achieved with a false window to the right of centre. It has four-pane sash windows with horns, dating from the mid-19th century. A central doorway, also from the early 19th century, features pilasters and a panelled surround, with a contemporary six-panel door—the top four panels now glazed. A late 20th-century gabled porch, supported on timber posts, now fronts the house.

Attached to and projecting from the left-hand end of the house is a barn, now used as a garage. It has a hipped roof covered in grouted slate. Behind this barn is a further extension connected to the main house. A two-storey outshut is located at the rear, to the right, and a late 20th-century conservatory sits to the left.

The interior's features primarily reflect the 19th-century remodelling. However, the far left room retains a 17th-century fireplace with a chamfered wooden lintel, incorporating jewel and ogee stops. A 18th-century oven is also present in this room. The central room formerly had two cupboards on the rear wall, flanking a fireplace; both have dentilled cornices. The right-hand room includes a six-panelled fielded door and panelled shutters. French windows at the rear have marginal panes and a panelled surround. The staircase features curved newels, stick balusters, a curtail step, and carved brackets. Joinery on the first floor, including six-panelled doors and fielded panel cupboard doors with H-L hinges, likely dates from the 18th century.
