Description

Westend House is a house, dating from the late 17th to 18th century, with a lower cross-wing possibly from the early 17th century located at the north-east end. The house has a timber frame with brick infill, with the ground floor partially rebuilt in brick, and the upper portion of the south-west end rendered. It has an old tile roof, hipped at the north-east end. A central brick chimney is from the 18th century, with another external to the north end of the cross-wing, and other smaller, later chimneys.

The main 2-storey range consists of three bays, featuring some original cross windows: one to the right of the ground floor on the southeast side, three to the first floor, and two to the first floor of the north-west side. These original windows have leaded top lights and barred wooden casements below. Most other windows are 20th-century wooden casements with barred glass.

The northwest front is irregular, with a 20th-century lean-to on the left. The gabled cross-wing contains similar 20th-century windows and a 20th-century door on the side facing the road. The southeast side is possibly dated by the figure “17” in blue brick headers in the centre, indicating a possible date.
