Description

Winslow House is a 17th-century dwelling that was remodelled later, likely in the early 19th century, with subsequent alterations. It is constructed of local stone with brick chimneys; the south elevation is cement rendered, and the roofs are slate.

The building is rectangular, with two storeys plus an attic. A range of rooms was added in the late 20th or early 21st century and is attached at the south-west end, with a room positioned above it. The three-bay road front is of coursed ashlar, probably an early 19th-century re-fronting, and features a pedimented parapet incorporating a small stack and a string course. The parapet sits in front of the gabled, two-span roof. The windows on the front are regularly spaced timber sashes with an unusual 10-pane arrangement; the central opening at the first floor is blank. The south elevation is incised render and includes the principal entrance with a glazed porch, a 19th-century canted bay to the left, and two 19th-century sashes above. The rear (north) and east elevations are of coursed stone, with brick or stone stacks, and some 19th-century sashes. A stone stack at the north-east end has offsets. Cast iron rainwater goods are present.

The north end of the ground floor is at a raised level and has a flagstone floor and an early 19th-century staircase. The main room to the north has a 19th-century partition with alcoves. The central room contains two stone fireplaces with bressumers and a substantial stop-chamfered cross beam. Another crossbeam has been repositioned, likely when a lateral steel beam was inserted. The staircase to the south is enclosed by a timber panelled partition. The principal room at the south end has 19th-century joinery, including window shutters. The first floor has 19th-century or later subdivisions and joinery, and a glazed lantern above the corridor. A bedroom to the south retains a chamfered crossbeam, probably dating back to the 17th century. Another beam is incorporated into the corridor partition. A timber staircase leads to the attic floor, which features an early iron casement. The roof structures contain substantial machine sawn timbers with cranked collars, secured with iron bolts. Part of the attic floor is designed as a mezzanine.

Attached to the road front is a stone garden wall with ramping. There are two stone gate piers, though their original positions are uncertain.

The kitchen range attached at the southwest and the attached garden wall are excluded from the listing.
