Shurdington Court

Shurdington Court is a large house dating from the late 17th century, with a later extension at the rear. The building features large blocks of squared and dressed limestone, with some areas made of smaller coursed limestone. The two right-hand bays have been rebuilt in this smaller stone. There is a continuous rendered band below the eaves of the brick extension, and the roof is covered with stone slates. The house has 20th-century brick stacks with moulded limestone cappings.

The rectangular plan includes a brick extension that is set at right angles to the rear. The house is two storeys high, with a cellar and attic, and has a seven-windowed facade that is illuminated by double-chamfered stone-mullioned cross windows. A continuous dripmould runs over the ground floor windows. The entrance features a 20th-century panelled door located off-centre to the right, accompanied by a 20th-century hall light and a shell-headed canopy that rises above the dripmould. There are four hipped eaves dormers with 20th-century two-light casements, and all windows have leaded panes. The right gable end has a 20th-century opening with a concrete lintel.

At the rear of the main body, there are three large chimney gables, and the roof is hipped. The interior is said to contain early beams with hooks, a large stone fireplace with a timber chimneypiece, several other original fireplaces, a fine balustraded staircase, and panelling up to dado height. The exterior can be viewed from the public highway, but the interior is not accessible.
