Westhorpe House

Westhorpe House is a house with an attached service wing, built in the early 18th century for James Chase, Member of Parliament for Marlow, who died in 1721. The house was altered in the early 19th century. It features colourwashed render over brick, with the front made of concealed vitreous headers and red dressings. The hipped roof is currently covered with plastic sheeting, although it was formerly slated. The building has red and vitreous brick chimneys and stands three storeys tall with an attic, comprising seven bays.

It has a short plinth, a first-floor band course, and a shallow moulded cornice topped with a balustraded parapet. The outer bays are more widely spaced and include flanking pilaster strips. The early 19th-century sash windows have narrow glazing bars, with two panes wide on the ground floor and three panes above. Most of the lower windows are boarded up. A central early 19th-century stone porch features a three-bay arcaded portico with an entablature that breaks forward over Ionic columns. The arches are glazed and boarded.

On the right end, there is an early 19th-century single-storey bowed projection with a moulded cornice, containing three bays of French windows with blind boxes. The service wing, attached to the rear left corner, is made of brick and colourwashed on the northeast side, topped with a hipped tile roof and a parapet over a band course. This wing is two storeys high with seven bays; the three central bays are slightly advanced, and the ground floor has been altered to include two garage entries. The other window openings are original, featuring slightly cambered heads, while the upper windows have 20th-century paired metal casements.

Inside, there is an early 18th-century open-well staircase that spans two storeys, currently in derelict condition, with twisted balusters, fluted Corinthian column newels, a moulded handrail, and carved scroll tread ends. There are small semi-circular balustraded projections on the landings, and the dado panelling is likely a later addition. Service stairs located in the eastern corner between the upper floors have splat balusters, and there is an early 18th-century staircase with turned balusters in the service wing. The interior has been largely stripped, with the first floor retaining very little early 18th-century panelling, while the ground floor was remodelled in the early 19th century.
