Description

Abbots Meadow is a house built in the late 18th century, with alterations and an extension made in the 19th century. The front is made of squared sandstone, while the sides and rear are constructed from coursed rubble sandstone. It features a plinth, herringbone-tooled quoins, and a Roman tile roof with rebuilt brick stacks. The house has a central-entry plan that is one and a half rooms deep, with a rear wing that was added and raised later.

The building is two stories high and has a three-window front. The central door consists of six recessed panels and has a divided overlight, set within a pilastered door-case topped with a cornice hood. Throughout the house, there are four-pane sash windows with stone sills, and the ground floor windows have wedge lintels. The first-floor windows break the stepped eaves course. The gables are coped, and there are shaped kneelers, with end stacks on the steeply-pitched roof.

On the right side of the house, there are 16-pane sash windows. Inside, the ground-floor front windows have panelled recesses. The room on the left side of the ground floor includes a fireplace with panelled jambs, a cornice shelf, and roundels in the frieze.
