Description

Green Court is a detached house with an early 17th-century core. It was significantly altered in the early 19th century and subject to extensive rebuilding during that period. The west front is constructed of ashlar limestone, while the rest of the house is of random and coursed rubble. It has ashlar chimneys and a Welsh slate roof. The house is arranged with a three-storey west range and a two-storey rear wing.

The west front features a symmetrical fenestration of 1:1:1, with 12-pane sashes on the ground floor (though the glazing bars have been removed) and a six-pane sash on the upper floor. Central tripartite sashes are present at ground and upper level. The central doorway has reeded pilasters with anthemion capitals, a reeded frieze, and a six-panel door with a cobweb fanlight. The west front also features plain floor bands and a coping to the rebuilt artificial stone parapet. Gable end chimneys have moulded caps.

The north side shows a mixture of alterations to the rear wing, resulting in varied masonry and fenestration. A Tudor arched doorway has a later inserted six-pane sash. Other windows consist of sashes and small-paned casements, including one small-paned horizontal sliding sash to the ground floor. A central chimney stack has a moulded cap. The east end displays several periods of C17 construction; three upper floor three-light recessed cavetto casements, all enlarged in the 19th century, alongside mixed ground floor fenestration, including one two-light window.

Inside, a fine open curved staircase is located in a small central hall of the west range, featuring stick balusters with reeding, a handrail with wreath terminals and delicate inlay. The interior also contains fine plaster cornices, reeded doorcases with paterae in the frieze, and six-panel doors. The house was enlarged for the Innell family, who were clothiers at Sevilles Mill.
