Description
Dale View Terrace is an 1817 apprentice house that has been converted into a terrace. It is constructed of rubble limestone, with some parts rendered, and features a Welsh slate roof and a single stone ridge stack. The building stands two storeys high and includes a castellated folly at the west end, likely designed as an eye-catcher visible from the 18th century Cressbrook Hall.
The west elevation showcases a square castellated tower on the left, which has four tiers of lancet windows. To the right, there is a pointed arched doorway flanked by two lancet windows above, featuring wooden Y-tracery. A castellated parapet sits above this section, with the upper part set back, displaying two additional tiers of lancets and a stepped gable. The square tower on the right has three tiers of lancets and a mono-pitched roof, which may be truncated.
The north elevation consists of six bays, with four upper windows still retaining their glazing bar sashes. Originally, the terrace was built to serve as the apprentices' house, providing one large room on each floor to accommodate both male and female apprentices from Cressbrook Mill.
