Newsham House

Newsham House is a house dating from the early to mid-19th century, built onto and offset from a late 18th-century farmhouse. It is constructed of chamfered, banded, rusticated ashlar. The house is two storeys high and has three bays, with the central bay projecting slightly. It features a plinth and a central four-panel part-glazed door, located behind a porch brought from Halnaby Hall. The porch has two Roman Doric columns at the front and pilasters behind, along with a Tuscan frieze, a dentil cornice, and a blocking. A first-floor band runs horizontally. The windows are 16-pane sash windows, topped by a dentil cornice. A parapet sits atop a flat roof, and corniced stacks are positioned between the bays. At the rear, a round-arched landing window from the 18th century is visible. The left return front range is built from dressed coursed stone and contains a bay of blind windows. The right return has a matching stone facade with a bay of windows.
