Description
Widgenton is an early 18th-century house constructed of red brick, featuring an old tile hipped roof behind a parapet. The building stands three storeys tall, with the first and second floors displaying five sash windows. All windows are set flush and have segmental heads with glazing bars. A moulded brick stringcourse runs above the first-floor windows. The ground floor has a central door framed by a Tuscan pedimented doorcase, with a modern bay window on each side. Inside, one room on the ground floor is adorned with panelling that includes recesses and a fireplace, which is contemporary with the house and dated 1711.
To the left of the house is a 16th-century barn that has been extensively restored and is now integrated into the house. This barn is timber-framed with brick nogging and an old tile roof, consisting of three bays and a central gabled former waggon entrance that is two storeys high, with the roof sloping down to one storey on either side. Additionally, there is a converted 19th-century stable on the left, made of red brick with an old tile roof, featuring a central door and a hay-loft entrance above, along with one modern two-light casement window on each side.
