Northcliffe House

Northcliffe House is a house built between 1891 and 1893 by W. Brierley for Miss E. Clarke, designed in the Jacobethan style. It is constructed of dressed sandstone with ashlar dressings and has a tiled roof. The main front features two storeys and five bays, with gables at both ends and the center, which are recessed. There is an off-centre castellated porch with a dated cartouche above a basket arch. To the right, a gabled bay has a two-storey, three-window canted bay with a castellated parapet. The house has mullion windows with square leaded lights throughout, and transoms on the ground floor. A moulded band runs along the first floor, and the gables are coped with ball finials. There are 20th-century dormers on the roof.

At the rear, there is a three-light mullion and double transom staircase window with trefoil heads and decorative glazing. On the left end, a three-storey castellated tower features raised bands at the first floor, eaves, and parapet levels. The seaward front has a three-storey canted bay. The left front includes a former service range with a conical-roofed kitchen and scrolled, bracketed eaves. Irregular stacks emerge from the pitched roof. Several Arts and Crafts wrought iron features are present, including a filigree bell pull to the right of the porch entrance, a lantern within the porch, and a bracketed bell hung over the kitchen yard.
