Description
Moormede is an early 19th-century house located in Lower Brimley, Bovey Tracey. The building features rendered and roughcast walls topped with a slate roof, and it has rendered stacks on the right gable end and at the front of the service block. The house is a two-storey double-depth block with a single-storey service wing to the left. The main block has a two-window front, with pointed-arched surrounds framing 12/12-pane sash windows that have a decorative Gothic-style arrangement of glazing bars at the heads. There is also a 9-pane casement window in the raking dormer. The entrance includes a six-panelled door set within a fine doorcase that has reeded pilasters and lozenges on the frieze beneath a cornice. The service wing features 8/8-pane sash windows at the front. Although the interior was not inspected, it is noted to have early 19th-century features, indicating an unusually rich treatment for a house of this size. There is a tradition that the house was built for an estate bailliff.
