Description
Cotswold House is a large early 19th-century house set back from the adjoining properties on Gloucester Street in Winchcombe. It is constructed of limestone ashlar and features a plinth, a plain string course at the first floor, a moulded cornice, and a parapet. The roof is made of Welsh slate, with coped gables that lead to plain ashlar stacks. This property has a large, parallel range and includes an extension at a slightly lower level on the left side, fronted by a courtyard.
The house has two storeys and attics, with a three-windowed facade. The original sash windows have bars, are set in reveals, and have stone cills, with 12 panes at the first floor and 16 panes at the ground floor. Centrally located is a well-crafted six-panel fielded door beneath a deep transom light, which is sheltered by a projecting square Greek Doric portico with a flat entablature, raised by two steps.
To the left, the contemporary extension features plain coping and includes a small 16-pane sash window with glazing bars above a side elliptical carriage opening, which has a pair of plank doors. To the right, there is a boundary wall approximately 3.5 meters high that runs from the front of the property to the back of the adjoining No 50.
