Description

Park Houses consists of a gamekeeper's house, four outbuildings for gamekeeping purposes, and a garden wall, likely built in the early to mid-18th century. The house and outbuildings are made of coursed sandstone, with the house featuring an interlocking tile roof and the outbuildings having pantile roofs. The garden wall is constructed of brick.

The house is two storeys high and has three bays, with single-storey wings projecting on either side. The central doorway is designed as a Venetian window, featuring a part-glazed door beneath a three-pane overlight, flanked by windows. There is a sill band at the ground floor, and the house has 20th-century casement windows that are smaller on the first floor. An eaves band runs along the roof, which is hipped with a central brick stack. The five-sided wings have half-hipped roofs, with plain tiles on the left and interlocking tiles on the right.

The four outbuildings are arranged as detached pavilions, set diagonally from the four corners of the house. Each has a hipped roof and a central brick chimney. One outbuilding serves as a beaters' bothy, another as a game larder, and the remaining two are used for raising pheasant chicks.

In front of the house, the garden is enclosed by a brick wall that has an irregular curving plan, built in English garden wall bond. The wall features pilaster buttresses, central gate piers, and stone coping.
