Bradden House

Bradden House is a country house dating to 1819, with alterations and additions from the late 19th century. It is constructed of ironstone ashlar with limestone dressings, and has slate roofs with stone end and ridge stacks topped with terracotta chimneypots. The house follows an H-shaped plan and has a seven-window facade. A part-glazed front door is set within a stone porch supported by Doric pillars, topped by a simple entablature and crest framed with volutes, and approached by two moulded steps. Flanked by coupled 12-pane sash windows in moulded stone surrounds. The first floor has 12-pane sashes, with those in the centre three bays having moulded stone surrounds, while the wings feature flat-arched heads. The house includes a plinth, storey band, pediments to the wings, and a balustraded parapet with ball finials. A small, square turret with a ball finial rises from the centre of the roof. The left side elevation, built in the late 19th century, is in an early Georgian style. The interior was largely remodelled in the late 19th century, but retains some Regency features, including a stone-flagged hall and reeded early 19th-century doorcases.
