Description
The Leys is a house located on West Street in Earls Barton, dating from the mid-18th century. It features regular coursed lias stone with a stucco facade and a slate roof. The original layout was a three-unit plan. The house has two storeys with an attic and a four-window range of leaded casements, some of which retain their original glass. A bay to the left of the center projects forward and includes a six-panel door with a fanlight and glazing bars, situated beneath a 19th-century wooden porch. The building has ashlar gable parapets and kneelers, along with brick stacks at the ridge and ends. Inside, there is an early 19th-century staircase with a stick balustrade.
