Dewerstone House

Dewerstone House is a villa dating from the 1870s, possibly designed by John Middleton. It is constructed of stone with ashlar dressings, and features a banded tile and fishscale roof with tall, ornamented ridge stacks arranged in groups of two and three, with cornices and decorative ridge tiles. The building is in the Gothic Revival style.

The villa is two storeys high, with a basement and attic space within the gables, and has three bays. The central entrance is within a projecting gabled porch, accessed by three steps with black and white tile. The entrance door is within a pointed, roll- and ovolo-moulded surround, with a hood mould featuring face stops. To the left of the entrance is a canted bay window with a 1:3:1 arrangement of ogeed-trefoil lights, fitted with mullions and transoms. Adjacent is a similar two-light window with a quatrefoil in the apex. To the right is a ground-floor canted bay, also featuring similar windows.

The first floor has a three-light window with a pointed relieving arch to the left of centre, and a triangular oriel with face decoration and similar windows to the right. The outer gables incorporate quatrefoil lights, and decorative bargeboards are present throughout. The left-hand return elevation has five first-floor windows. Gables are present to each bay, with taller bargeboards to the centre. A full-height canted bay is centrally positioned. The first floor has paired mullion and transom windows with upper trefoiled lights and a trefoil to the gable. Additional windows are similar in style, with two-light windows to the first floor and three-light windows to the ground floor. Basement windows are mullioned.
