Description
Queen Anne House, now an office, is reputedly from 1706 but mainly dates to the late 18th century. The building features a brick front with a limestone and ironstone rear, topped with a slate roof. It has a two-unit plan and stands three storeys high with a three-window range. The central entrance consists of a six-panelled door with an arched fanlight and a flat hood above. The ground and first floors have 19th-century sash windows, while the second floor features 18th-century sashes with glazing bars, all set beneath plain stone lintels. The centre windows on the first and second floors are arch head sashes with glazing bars, complemented by plain brick arches with keyblocks. A plain string course runs between the first and second floors, and there are moulded stone cornices along with ashlar gable parapets and kneelers. Brick stacks are located at both ends of the building. Inside, there is a late 18th-century staircase with turned balusters and quarter landings, along with some six-panelled doors on the ground floor.
