Description
The Turnery is a house dating from the late 17th to early 18th century. It is constructed of chequer brick with vitreous brick headers, a flint plinth, and an old tile roof, with a partly rebuilt brick chimney to the right of the centre. The house has two storeys and an attic, originally with two bays. A band course runs across the first floor, featuring small modillions. The windows are 3-light leaded casements; those on the ground floor have flat brick arches. A central window has been blocked, and may have originally been a doorway. A small oval leaded window is positioned in the centre of the first floor. Two bricks are initialled 'AD' and 'MF'. A matching 20th-century lean-to extension has been added to the right, featuring paired leaded casements. The left gable has 3-light leaded casements to the main storeys, and a 2-light window to the attic. 20th-century brick wings have been built to the rear, these being one storey in height and with an attic featuring gabled eaves line dormers. Internally, the left bay contains a chamfered spine beam and a fireplace lintel with bar stops. A winder stair is located within a former projection to the centre rear.
