Scotton House

Scotton House is a manor house dating from the early to mid 17th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of rubble and features a pantile roof with a course of stone slates at the eaves. The building has a T-shaped plan with a rear wing and consists of three heated cells, with a lobby entry. It is two storeys high and has five first-floor windows on the south elevation. The house sits on a boulder plinth and has quoins.

Between the first and second cells, there is a board door set in a quoined, chamfered surround with a triangular head and sunk spandrels. The windows are chamfered mullion style, with four-light windows on the ground floor featuring hood-moulds under relieving arches, and three-light windows on the first floor. There are small fire-windows in the first bay on the ground floor and in the second and third bays on the first floor. The kneelers are shaped as quarter-rounds, and there is ashlar coping.

A corniced ashlar stack is located between the first and second cells, while a double-flued stack is positioned at the end right. The rear wing has single-light chamfered windows on the ground floor and in the gable. The left return of the rear wing features two 2-light chamfered mullion windows on the first floor, while the left return of the main house has a single-light chamfered window in the gable. The right return of the main house includes one single-light chamfered window on the ground floor, two on the first floor, and one in the gable.

Inside, at the right end of the ground floor, there is a fireplace with a quoined, chamfered surround and a triangular soffit to the lintel.
