Rutland House

Rutland House is a late 18th-century house with 20th-century alterations, located on the south side of Main Street in Harome. The building is constructed from coursed limestone rubble with sandstone quoins featuring herring-bone tooling and coping, topped with a plain tile roof and brick stacks. It has a three-room hearth-passage plan, with a modern staircase added in the former passage. At the rear, there is a projecting dairy behind the kitchen. The house stands three storeys high and has three bays.

The entrance features a four-panel door beneath a radial fanlight and a round-arched lintel. The windows include 16-pane sash windows, with 8-pane sash windows in the attic, all adorned with keyed stone lintels. There is a Yorkshire fire insurance plaque over the door dated 1824. The gable has coping with shaped kneelers, and there are end stacks and a ridge stack.

Inside, the kitchen on the right has a massive bressumer, although the original fireplace is now blocked. The principal hearth boasts a large stone fireplace that is corbelled out, with a moulded wooden shelf above it. There is also a panelled heck with an inglenook seat.
