Description
Prospect House is a house from the mid-18th century, constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and features three bays. It has a plinth and raised quoins. The central entrance consists of a part-glazed door surrounded by raised quoins, with cyma reversa corbels supporting a cornice that has a stone slate capping. On the first floor, there is a 20th-century six-pane casement window set in an ashlar surround. The other windows are 20th-century eight-pane casements, also in ashlar surrounds. A first-floor sill band runs along the building, and there are shaped kneelers with ashlar coping. The corniced end stacks add to its architectural detail. At the rear, which faces the street, there are three bays featuring 16-pane casement windows in raised ashlar surrounds in the first and third bays, and a central Venetian window with a raised ashlar surround.
