Description
Stansted House is a Grade II* listed building located in Stoughton, built in 1903 by A C Blomfield in the style of Sir Christopher Wren. This house replaced an earlier structure from 1786, designed by James Wyatt and Bonomi, which was destroyed by fire in 1900, leaving only the service wing and stables. The current house is nearly square, with two storeys and attics. The west entrance front features nine windows and is constructed of red brick with Portland stone quoins, a stringcourse, a modillion cornice, and a balustraded parapet. The central portion, which projects, has three windows and is topped with a pediment that contains a circular window adorned with stone swags. The glazing bars are intact, and there are stone architraves above the ground floor windows. A stone portico with six Ionic columns leads up seven steps to the entrance. The south side has six windows without any projection, and there is a pediment over the four central ground floor windows. A hexagonal turret is positioned at the center of the roof.
