Description

Musgrave House is a house from the mid-19th century. It is constructed of pebble-dashed rubble with incised stucco corner pilasters. The roof is made of graduated slate and features stone chimneys at each end. The building has two storeys and three symmetrical bays. The central entrance has a panelled door with a rectangular fanlight above, all framed by an architrave with a cornice. There is a single sash window on either side of the door, and three sash windows on the first floor, all of which have 16 panes and are set in stone surrounds.
