Dover House

Dover House is a house located at the end of a row in Northleach, built around 1619 according to the will of William Dutton, with a 19th-century extension. The building is constructed from limestone rubble with an ashlar front facing the street and has a stone slate roof, while the rear extension features corrugated asbestos. The house originally had an 'L'-shaped plan but is now rectangular, with a small 19th-century extension added.

The two-storey facade facing the main road has two windows, all of which are 12-pane sashes with horns. There is a 19th-century six-panel door that is set back within a semi-circular headed surround. Above the first-floor windows, there is a band and parapet. On the left-hand return, there is a 20th-century door with glazing bars set within a flat-chamfered four-centred arched surround, alongside a sixteen-pane sash window to the left of the door, a small 16-pane sash above the door, and a twenty-pane sash window to the left. The upper floor of the extension to the left has a sixteen-pane sash, and there is a six-pane casement window within the blocking of a room pitching door to the left. Additionally, there is a 19th-century four-panel door with glazed upper panels and a 19th-century plank door on the ground floor. The house features gable end stacks.

Inside, there are intersecting moulded beams in the room to the left of the four-centred arched doorway. Historically, the building was used as a store for wool and cloth before becoming the Lamb Inn and later the Sherborne Arms. The house originally extended further to the left of the current front, but those additional bays were refronted in the early 19th century to match the remaining two bays. This part of the house was dismantled and transported to America by Henry Ford in 1937. The house also contained stencilled wall paintings, likely from the 18th century.
