Description
This is a late 19th century house, dated 1880, built for the Bathurst estate and likely designed by John Birch. It is constructed from coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings and has a Welsh slate roof, featuring ashlar stacks with four flues to the left end and two to the right. The house is designed in a Jacobethan style, with a double-pile plan and a single gable facing the front.
The front elevation has a two-storey, two-window arrangement. The first floor has a pair of three-light stone mullion-and-transom windows with leaded lights, each set under a hoodmould that rises to centre to encompass a carved datestone bearing the Bathurst monogram and coronet alongside the date 1880. A moulded stone cill runs along the base of these windows. The ground floor has two similar three-light windows with leaded upper lights, also under hoodmoulds and with moulded stone cills. A part-glazed plank door is set within a moulded stone surround featuring a four-centred arched head and a hoodmould. Relieving arches and a moulded string course run above the ground floor openings. A moulded stone eaves cornice sits beneath the gable, which has stepped moulded coping with carved kneelers and finials to either side, and further ball finials on the kneelers.
The interior has not been inspected, but it is believed to include a shed opening to the rear on the ground floor. The rear of the house and adjoining yard were not inspected during the listing assessment.
