Lynnside House With Garden Wall Adjoining To West

Lynnside House, built in 1891 by J.F. Curwen for F.W. Crewdson, is a house in the Arts and Crafts style, accompanied by a garden wall to the west. The house features coursed, squared rubble with quoins on a tall, battered plinth, and the first floor is slate-hung with a wet-dashed gabled dormer. It has moulded cast-iron gutters and hipped, graduated slate roofs with dormer windows and stone mid chimneys. The building stands three storeys high with cellars. A long path runs parallel to the front of the house, leading to a part-glazed door in a porch. The windows are asymmetrical, with slate canopies on the upper floors; all are multi-light casements, some set in stone-mullioned surrounds, and most feature diamond or decorative leading. There are five narrow cellar windows that are deeply recessed in the plinth on the left side. The adjoining garden wall is an extension of the plinth, made of coursed, squared rubble with a battered design and a ramped, castellated top, standing about 20 feet high. The wall is set forward to the west of the path leading to the front door and features a projecting parapet at a rounded corner.
