Description
Reed House is an early 19th-century farmhouse with a later 19th-century addition. It has plastered walls and a low-pitched slate roof. The building features a rendered brick axial stack and a brick gable stack on the rear wing. The plan is double-depth, with two rooms wide, including a central entrance hall, principal rooms to either side, and service rooms at the rear. A staircase is located behind the front room. A later 19th-century wing extends to the left rear.
The symmetrical front façade has three windows, with 4:12:4 pane tripartite sashes on both floors to the left and right. The first-floor right-hand window is a later replacement. A later 19th or 20th-century 12-pane horned sash window is centrally positioned on the first floor. A central Doric porch shelters an original part-glazed door with a semi-circular fanlight and narrow side-lights above.
The interior retains original panelled shutters, 6-panel doors, and marble fireplaces, which may be from the later 19th century. The staircase has not been inspected, but it may also be original.
