Description
Lea House is a house dating from the 17th century, situated in the parish of Edale, close to Grindsbrook Booth. The construction uses coursed gritstone with gritstone dressings, topped with a stone slate roof and featuring two stone stacks. The house is characterised by massive quoins. The south elevation has three bays. An off-centre doorway features a 19th-century panelled door and a small, rectangular overlight. To the left of the door is a two-light mullion window, originally a four-light window, recessed and with chamfered edges. To the right are a four-light and a two-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows. A chamfered band runs across the first floor, acting as continuous dripmoulds above the doors and windows. Above, on the first floor, are two three-light and one two-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows; the window on the left retains two original diamond-paned lights.
