Description

No. 10 Highweek Road is a detached house, now part of a school, built in the mid-19th century. The front features incised stucco, while the rest of the building has 20th-century painted roughcast. It has a hipped slate roof with tall stacks, one on the left and two on the right. The plan is double-depth, with a late 19th-century two-storey flat-roofed rear wing.

The house is two storeys high and has a symmetrical three-window arrangement on the garden front, which is unusual as it has a niche instead of a door in the center. The first floor has 8/8-pane sash windows, and the ground floor features French windows flanking a full-height hemispherical-topped niche. There are pilasters with masks at the top, displaying boldly incised intertwining lines, and a blank space where a former verandah was attached. The right return has two glazing bar sashes and a doorway. The entrance includes a six-panel door with a cast-iron wreath knocker, topped by a semicircular fanlight with a circular pane in the center, and a chamfered archivolt.

The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have panelled shutters on the ground floor.
