Description
This is a house located to the rear of High Ludderburn, likely built in the early 18th century. It is constructed of roughcast stone and features slate roofs. The building has two storeys and three bays, with a single-storey recessed bay on the left side. The ground floor windows have dripstones and consist of small-paned fixed glazing with opening lights, while the windows in the third bay of the ground floor and the first and second bays of the first floor are sashed with glazing bars, vertical on the ground floor and with horns on the first floor. There is a fire window in the first bay. The entrance is sheltered by a gabled canopy, and the single-storey bay includes both an entrance and a window. Gable-end stacks are present. The rear of the house is built into the hillside and features an entrance accessed by steps, as well as a two-light wooden mullioned window with intermediate bars. There is also a stair window with two lights that is partially blocked and features a wooden cross-mullioned design. Inside, the house has a flag floor, and the staircase includes turned balusters, square newels, and a moulded handrail.
