Description
Well House is a detached house dating from the 17th century. It is constructed of squared and coursed limestone with a stone slate roof featuring coped gables and a stack on the left side. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a two-windowed front that includes two-light chamfered mullion casements with horizontal bars. There are small two-light casement gabled dormers above. The central entrance features a 19th-century panelled door set within a 19th-century porch that has timber checks and a stone slate roof, topped with a heavy saddle stone and ball finial. On the left gable, there is a small 6-pane casement window at ground level. The rear of the house has 20th-century extensions. The name "Well House" comes from a well located directly in front of the entrance, which has a large single stone drum approximately 1.3 meters in diameter and 700 millimeters deep as part of the well-head structure.
