Tyne House And Railings To South

Tyne House is a house located on High Street, dating from around 1600, with later alterations in the 18th century. The front range is timber-framed but has been refronted with knapped flint, featuring red brick dressings and quoins. A second storey was added in the later 18th century. The house has a plain tiled roof with a dentilled cornice and a single brick stack at the centre behind the ridge. It stands three storeys tall with a regular four-window front, showcasing glazing bar sashes with red brick dressed architrave surrounds and gauged segment heads. The ground floor features sashes without glazing bars. The entrance is located in the second bay from the right, consisting of a panelled door topped with a wreathed and radiating fanlight. The arched doorway has panelled reveals, a Doric pilastered door surround, and an open triangular pediment. Surrounding the entrance are cast-iron railings with vase-head standards.

At the rear, there are two parallel wings; the left wing dates from around 1600, while the right wing is from around 1750. Inside, the main range shows evidence of timber-framing, particularly in the roof, which has braced collars and continuous purlins. The major rooms feature much pine panelling from around 1750, with some re-used oak panelling. An open string staircase is present, featuring three square balusters per step and a mahogany rail. The stairwell has curved corners and is topped with a plaster dome and octagonal cupola, adorned with applied swags and other decorative elements. Additionally, remnants of two early 17th-century staircases can be found between the first and second floors.
