Description

Candler House is a former extension to Low Hall, now functioning as a house, built around 1790 with later alterations. It was constructed for Captain Candler of Scarborough. The building features rose brick in garden wall bond, which has been rendered on the front, and includes stone dressings and a pantile roof. It is two stories high with a two-window front. To the left, there is a 20th-century copy of the original six-panel door, which has a radial-glazing fanlight and an open-pedimented doorcase supported by fluted Ionic pilasters adorned with rosettes on the friezes, and ball mouldings instead of dentils. On the right, there is a semi-circular bay with three curved twelve-pane sash windows. The first floor has sixteen-pane sash windows with stone sills and raised key wedge lintels. The gables are coped with shaped kneelers, and there is a stack at the right end. Inside, there is an open string straight staircase featuring a moulded handrail that is wreathed at the foot around a reeded circular newel, with reeded, squared balusters and shaped cheekpieces. The ground floor has six-panel doors in reeded architraves, and the hall and stairs ceiling has a moulded plaster cornice.
