Description
Keswick House is a house dating from the early to mid 17th century, possibly with earlier origins. It features rendered cob walls and a gable-ended thatch roof. There is a brick stack at each gable end and a projecting rendered rubble lateral stack at the front.
The house has a two-room plan with a through passage. The hall is located to the right and is heated by a fireplace on the front wall, with a possible small inner room beyond.
The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical four-window front, with a large projecting lateral stack at the center. The windows are mid to late 20th century two and three-light casements without glazing bars. To the left of center, there is a 19th-century glazed and panelled door.
