Description
Box Tree House is a 17th-century house that has been raised and extended at a later date, with a roof replacement and modernization carried out in the 1970s. The building is constructed from coursed sandstone rubble and features a pantile roof, with two brick and one stone chimney stacks. It has an L-shaped plan, with the right range consisting of two low storeys and three windows, while the left range is a single-storey, two-bay structure.
The entrance is marked by a 20th-century board door located to the right of the lower end, with an enlarged three-light, small-pane horizontal sliding sash window to the left. The higher end has two similar windows on the ground floor, along with an enlarged fire window with two lights to the left. The first floor features three three-light sliding sash windows. All windows on the higher end have been fitted with renewed stone sills, and all openings are topped with timber lintels. The building has end stacks at the higher end and an end left stack at the lower end.
