Eastington Park

Eastington Park is a country house built between around 1806 and 1815 for Henry Hicks, a local mill owner. At the time of the survey in November 1985, it was being used as an old people's home. The building is constructed of ashlar with a hipped slate roof and rebuilt yellow brick stacks. Originally, it was a squarish three-storey structure featuring a full-height segmental bow at the south corner and a small service range to the west. In the late 19th century, it was enlarged with a two-storey and attic wing to the north and a long service range in two sections to the west, also two storeys high.

The main facade faces southeast and has five windows, with six-pane sashes on the second floor and twelve-pane sashes on the first and ground floors, the latter being larger. The central bay projects slightly and features a cambered recess for full height, with windows aligned on the same plane. A central Doric stone porch with twin unfluted columns and a single rear pilaster includes an entablature, blocking course, and half-glazed double inner doors with sidelights and fielded lower panels. The later north range has two large single-storey bows, and the fenestration is similar throughout. The rear service wings are made of coursed and dressed stone, as well as rubble stone, both featuring quoins. Inside, the building retains a curved cantilever staircase at the rear of the hall, complete with a wreathed and ramped handrail and much internal joinery.
