Dove House

Dove House is a house dating from the 16th or 17th century, possibly incorporating earlier stonework. It features a timber frame with 17th and 18th century brick infill and refacing on the north elevation. The building has old tile roofs and an old chimney located in the center of the north wing, along with a large projecting stack with a stone base on the west elevation. Dormer windows were added in the 1970s.

The house is two storeys with an attic and has brick bands on the northeast gable. The north elevation has three bays of three-light leaded casements, mostly from the 1970s, with the central ground floor window replacing the original entrance door to the lobby in front of the stack. The east elevation features a timber-framed gable on the left-hand side with a three-light attic window, a renewed oriel window on the first floor supported by an original bracket carved with initials and the date 1601, and flanking two-light windows with higher cills. The right-hand bay has a similar renewed window. There is a half-glazed door on the ground floor with three-light leaded casements on each side.

The northeast gable projects to the right and has a two-light attic casement and three-light casements on both the first and ground floors, all with segmental arched heads. The south gable is timber-framed above the ground floor and has a two-light attic casement along with three-light casements on both the first and ground floors. The west elevation features a rubble stone ground floor with timber framing and brick above, and a tiled over projection at the angle of the chimney stack and south bay. The west gable of the north wing is timber framed. There is a single-storey wing added in the 1970s, made of brick with an old tiled roof.

Inside, the house has exposed framing, a chamfered ceiling beam, and two inglenooks.
