Description

Keble House is a detached house built in the early 18th century, with a new front added in the 1780s by John Keble, who was the Vicar of Coln St. Aldwyns. His son, John Keble, a notable Tractarian, was born here on April 25, 1792. As of September 1985, the house is still occupied by members of the Keble family. The front is made of coursed rubble stone with alternating flush quoins, while the rear ranges are also of rubble stone. The house features a stone slate roof and stone end stacks with an offset and moulded cornice.

The main front range is two storeys high with an attic, and it crosses a two-storey earlier rear range. There are three windows with raking dormers that have 6-pane sash windows through the eaves, and 9-pane sash windows on the first floor, all framed by plain stone architraves with thin outer edge moulding and a continuous sill band. The ground floor has two 12-pane sash windows and a central stone round-headed doorcase, all featuring similar moulding, including a keystone and imposts. The doorcase has recessed double doors from the 19th century that are half-glazed with margin glazing and a radial fanlight. The main entrance is located on the right-hand return and includes a 6-panel door. Internal shutters are still present on the ground floor.
