Halfway House

Dated 1732 on the keystone of the doorway, Halfway House is a small artisan baroque house. It is constructed of ashlar, with a band running above the ground floor. The roof is covered in stone slate, with coped verges and end chimneys that have modern capping. There are two gabled dormers. The house has three windows: two mullion and transom windows of three lights, and a central window of two lights. The right-hand ground floor window has an early 19th-century shallow bow with reeded colonnettes and a restored modillion cornice. The central doorpiece features a segmental pediment and Ionic pilasters with a pulvinated frieze; the modern door does not suit the style of the building. Lower wings extend to the left and right, with the wing on the right having been modernised.
