Description
Rex House is an 18th-century house with significant 20th-century restorations. It is constructed from coursed, squared limestone rubble with a tile roof and flat gable coping. Ashlar stacks are located on the gable ends. A moulded modillioned wooden eaves cornice runs along the top of the building. The house is in a Queen Anne dolls' house style and is two storeys and an attic, with three dormers in the roof. The central dormer has a segmental pediment, while the flanking dormers have triangular pediments. All dormers contain 2-light wooden casements with glazing bars. The front of the house has three 2-light cross windows, all dating from the 20th century and featuring glazing bars. The central door consists of nine fielded panels, above which is a decorative light with glazing bars in the form of linked ovals and two half-ovals. A 19th-century iron gate and railing, consisting of looped and spear-headed design, are located in front of the house. A roughly 12-meter-long and 2.5-meter-high limestone wall, also constructed from coursed, squared stone, is attached to the left side of the property.
