Description
Hawkrigg House is a farmhouse dated 1824, as inscribed over the rear carriage arch with the initials J. & S.J. (John Jefferson). The building features painted incised stucco, an eaves cornice, and V-jointed quoins set on a moulded plinth. It has a greenslate roof with lead hips and stucco chimney stacks. The house is two storeys high and has three bays, with lower flanking two-storey wings that have pedimented gables. The entrance consists of a panelled door set in a Doric prostyle porch, which has a swag frieze beneath a dentilled cornice. There are flanking Venetian sash windows with glazing bars within a round arch, as well as similar ground floor windows in the wings. The upper floor features sash windows with glazing bars. The wings have open-pedimented gables that enclose circular attic windows with radial glazing bars. Additionally, there is an extra upper floor sash window with glazing bars in the right wing, and the rear of the left wing includes an archway with a dated keystone.
