Description
New House, Oundle School consists of four distinct houses. The first house is from the early 18th century and has two storeys made of coursed dressed stone with a stone slate roof. It features two hipped dormers and four windows on the first floor, with the entrance located as the second opening from the right-hand end. The windows are late casements with wooden lintels. The second house, built around 1700, is a low two-storey building with a steep stone slate roof, set lower than the first house. It is smaller but also has four openings arranged similarly and of the same type and date. The third house dates to 1640 and has one storey and attics made of ashlar, with a steep stone slate roof that has a ridge above the party wall to the right of centre and a small gabled dormer at the centre. It features two gabled bays with five-light stone mullioned windows on both floors. There is a datestone on the right-hand gable and a plain low doorway with deep reveals and a stone lintel. The fourth house is an early 18th-century two-storey structure made of coursed rubble with a steep stone slate roof and three hipped dormers. It has four windows with 19th-century fenestration and an archway through the west end of the ground floor.
Nos 1 to 13 consecutively form a group with the Holy Name of Jesus Church on West Street.
