Description
Bridge House is a detached house built in the late 18th century, potentially in two phases. The house has coursed rubble construction, with some changes in the material suggesting different building periods, and a stone slate roof with a wooden eaves cornice. It features three stone stacks, one with a moulded cornice to the left end and one to the ridge. The main part of the house is a single long range with a catslide roof on the left side, and it is two storeys high with an attic in the gable ends. There are three windows on each side, each with triple sash windows of 4/12/4 panes in cambered stone surrounds. The central window on the ground floor is a straight-headed 12-pane sash. The ground floor also has two similar triple sashes. A stone doorcase with an open moulded pediment incorporating rosettes in the frieze, pilasters, a decorative radial fanlight, and a half-glazed 4-panel door with two lower flush panels is centrally positioned. A small wing of single storey and attic is set at an angle to the right-hand side, and it has a gabled dormer window.
