Description
Lime Garth is a house dating from the late 18th century, with alterations made in the late 19th century. It is constructed of pale brown local brick, featuring red brick bands at the floor levels and quoins. The house has a late 19th-century wooden cornice with modillions at the eaves, and a roof made of Lakeland slate, complete with stone coping and kneelers. There are brick chimneys at either end of the building.
The house stands three storeys tall and has three bays. Access is provided by three stone steps leading to a central entrance. The entrance features a late 19th-century doorcase with reeded pilasters and brackets, topped by a small flat hood. The door itself is a six-panel design with an oblong fanlight above it.
On either side of the entrance, there are late 19th-century canted bays made of white brick, each adorned with modillion cornices and shallow segmental sash windows that include margin lights. Above these, the upper floors have sash windows with glazing bars, set within flush wood architraves that have painted lintels and cills. There is a blocked central opening on the second floor.
