Denham Mount

Denham Mount is an early 19th-century rustic villa, built to the designs of Robert Lugar and completed before 1823. Constructed of colourwashed stucco, it has a hipped Welsh slate roof with an eaves cornice featuring paired brackets. The entrance front has a central polygonal bay. The first floor features a French window opening onto a cast iron balcony supported by paired brackets; the roof cornice above the bay is slightly higher than elsewhere, with a panelled frieze and band. The left-hand bay has a pediment and a ground floor casement with consoles and cornice. The right-hand bay is a mid-19th century polygonal projection with a first-floor cast iron balcony on brackets. The left-hand return has a ground floor open veranda with wood lath-faced columns and French windows, with first-floor casements. On the left, a bow window contains three curved windows with chamfered corners, retaining their frames and glazing bars. The south front continues the veranda, with a central two-storey window bay with a pedimented ground floor and an additional splayed bay. A mid-19th century wing of three storeys is largely concealed on the ground floor by a conservatory. A timber bell turret with a weathercock sits on the roof. The interior retains good early 19th-century details, including cast iron railing to the staircase.
