Peasholm House

Peasholm House is an early 19th-century building that represents a recasing of an earlier 17th-century coaching inn. It is mentioned in the 1669 History of Scarborough. The building has two storeys and is constructed of painted brick with stone rubble footings towards Columbus Ravine. It features a steep-pitched gable end slate roof and two flat-roofed dormers, along with a carved eaves board. The symmetrical front has three windows with recessed sash windows and intact glazing bars, each with a flat stucco arch. A pedimented porch from the Early Victorian period has a marginal glazed semicircular fanlight within its tympanum, and open scrolled ironwork on the sides. The main entrance has a six-panel door with a simple architrave. The interior has been altered, with original beams now boxed in. Peasholm House forms a group with numbers 2 and 3 Peasholm Cottages and Columbus Ravine.
