Description
Weathercote House is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed from slobbered squared limestone rubble with millstone grit dressings and has a stone slate roof. The building consists of three sections: a central mid-18th century bay, a left-hand two-bay mid-19th century extension that reuses earlier materials, and a right-hand mid-19th century gabled bay.
The central bay features a right-hand stone entrance located in a mid-19th century porch, which has an ogee-headed hoodmould and plank doors. To the left, there is a ground floor five-light flat-faced mullioned window with a moulded surround, and a similar four-light window on the upper floor, both with a dripstone above the ground floor window. Adjacent to the left, the mid-19th century extension has a blocked right-hand entrance and a heightened ground floor four-light chamfered mullioned window dating from around 1700, along with two late 18th century recessed flat-faced two-light mullioned windows on the upper floor.
To the right of the entrance is the gabled mid-19th century bay, which has a ground floor three-light mullioned and transomed window with a dripmould, and an upper floor two-light mullioned and transomed window with a hoodmould. There is also a single light window in the gable. All windows feature 19th and 20th century casements. The mid-19th century wing has decorative bargeboards and a dropped spike finial. A ridge stack is located at the former left-hand gable. The mid-18th century rear wing contains two windows with moulded surrounds, a ground floor fixed light, and upper floor sixteen-pane casements.
