Rokeby House

Rokeby House is a substantial house, likely built in the late 17th century, with many alterations. It features incised rendered walls and a pantiled roof with rendered copings, stone kneelers, and old brick stacks. The building has two storeys and an attic, with two very wide bays. The central entrance has a 20th-century flush door beneath a wooden hood supported by full-length brackets. On either side, there are paired modern pivoted casement windows on the ground and first floors that share wide stone cills, with the first-floor windows framed in wood architraves. The attic has half dormers with paired small-paned chamfered mullioned windows. There are chimneys at both ends, and the right return is blank. The rear elevation has one storey and an attic, featuring a modern glazed door in a felt-roofed porch, a picture window with plastic bars, and a wide modern dormer above. The 20th-century rear porch is not of special interest.
