Description
Highgrove is a detached house set in landscaped grounds, built between 1796 and 1798 but largely rebuilt to its original appearance in 1894 by John Hart of Bristol after suffering severe fire damage. The interior has been altered, and an office wing at the rear (northwest) was demolished in 1966. The building is constructed of ashlar with stone-slate roofs. The principal block is rectangular, comprising five bays by three and rising to three storeys. It features pilasters on the upper floors, a cornice, and a parapet. The garden front (southwest) has five bays, with a central canted bay that is two storeys high. The windows are mid-19th century 12-pane sashes, and the sashes on the southeast are set in arched recesses. To the northwest, there is a lower office wing with a rounded bay projection, dating from the late 18th century. A porch was added to the southeast in 1894.
