Description
Church House is a house built in 1676 and restored around 1960. It is constructed of coursed gritstone and has a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and two bays, with a rear outshut. The central entrance features a board door with a moulded architrave and a large lintel that has the inscription 'G I W' within a 20th-century porch. On either side of the entrance are 1676 four-light recessed chamfered mullion windows with hood-moulds. On the first floor, there is a three-light chamfered mullion window under the eaves on the left and a round-headed window in the centre. The house has a central ridge stack. On the right side, there is a small blocked round-arched window in the centre of the ground floor, and a 20th-century four-light mullion window is present in the gable and on the left gable.
