Description
Low Stakesby Mansion is an 18th-century building constructed in 1811. It is a two-storey brick structure featuring a symmetrical facade with two sets of one-over-one sash windows flanking a central Venetian window. The building is adorned with stone quoins, a stone cornice, a brick parapet, and a pediment that displays a stone coat-of-arms. There are two pedimented dormers on the roof.
To the right of the main house is an office wing that is also two storeys high and built of brick. This wing has a symmetrical arrangement of two sets of three-over-two sash windows, with a central slight projection under a pediment that includes an oeil-de-boeuf window. The first floor features a central half-round window with ornamental glazing bars. The office wing has a parapet and a roof covered with pantiles.
At the rear, the mansion continues the brick construction with a three-one-three-one arrangement of sash windows. It includes stone architraves and quoins, a cornice, a balustrade, and a pedimented Ionic doorcase that contains a doorway with a round fanlight and two narrow flanking sash windows. The pediment features an oeil-de-boeuf in a stone frame, and the brick parapet is complemented by two pedimented dormers in a red tile roof.
Inside, the house retains a good original staircase and possibly other original features.
