The Old House And Attached Outbuilding

The Old House and attached outbuilding date from the early to mid-18th century, with later alterations in the 18th and 19th centuries. The building is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, featuring flared headers, and has a plain-tile roof with brick end stacks. The main house is of three-unit design, with two storeys and an attic, and originally had a six-window front. The right-hand side features a six-panel door with a moulded wooden surround within a 19th-century stuccoed porch, which has an elliptical arched doorway with impost mouldings, a plinth, and a pair of narrow, single-light openings on either side. A six-panel, part-glazed door with a moulded wooden surround and shaped bracket hood is located to the left of centre (leading to No. 56). The ground floor windows are 12-pane sashes with segmental arches above straight window heads; the first-floor windows have 12 panes and flat arches. A blank window is present on the ground floor to the right of the porch. Pairs of dummy windows with painted glazing bars are visible on the first floor to the left of centre and far right. A plinth, moulded storey band, hollow-chamfered brick eaves, and two hip-roofed dormer windows are also present. Rows of flared brick headers are positioned around the windows. The attached outbuilding to the right is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern with flared headers, and has a hipped plain-tile roof. It features a central double-leaf carriage door with a wicket gate to the left and later, lower, double-leaf carriage doors to the right, both with wooden lintels; a gabled roof dormer is on the far left. The interior includes chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, a staircase with mahogany stick balusters, column newels, and a ramped handrail, and a stone cellar.
