Description
Banna is a house that was formerly a rectory, built in 1837. It is constructed from quarry-faced grey sandstone ashlar on a squared plinth with raised quoins, and features a slate roof that projects over the eaves. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with flanking two-storey, single-bay wings. The entrance has a 20th-century door set within a quoined surround that includes a keyed entablature. On either side of the door are double sash windows with glazing bars, which are framed by chamfered stone surrounds and hood moulds. The windows on the upper floor are also sash windows with glazing bars. The wings feature sash windows without hood moulds. The left end wall has two 20th-century ground floor windows. Banna is located within the ditch of the Roman Fort of Banna, which is reflected in its name. The building is included partly for its group value with the nearby church.
