Amberley Court

Amberley Court dates from the early 19th century, with later additions in the mid-19th and 20th centuries. The main part of the house is rendered and built on a Cotswold stone rubble base, concealed by a mansard roof. It features two segmental dormers, ashlar chimneys with moulded capping, and two large two-storey bowed frontages, each with three windows. The upper windows are glazing bar sashes, while the ground floor windows are sheet glass sashes. A moulded cornice and blocking course run along the top of the facade. A central conical rainwater head is also present. A set-back bay to the right has an Ionic doorcase, sheltering a half-glazed door with intersected glazing in a rectangular transom light.

A two-storey wing in ashlar, incorporating floor bands, a cornice, and a blocking course, was added to the right in the mid-19th century. This wing features three windows on the first floor and a large bay window on the ground floor. A more recent two-storey and basement wing, set back to the left, connects to the main house via a porch link.

The north front displays a unified mid-19th century design, with a moulded parapet, a hipped Cotswold stone roof, and diagonally-set chimneys, including a belfry turret. Two gables are incorporated into the parapet. It includes two two-storey segmental bows and one square bay set back to the right, encompassing six bays in total. The windows are a mullion and transom style, with patterned lead glazing. Some ground floor windows are arched with drips. Attic gables are fitted with lancet windows. The right-hand bow incorporates broaching creating a segmental arched entrance, which leads into a rib-vaulted lobby. Various extensions are present to the left. The house is said to have inspired Beechwood in the novel "John Halifax, Gentleman."
