Description
Conigre House dates to around 1800 to 1820 and was built for Edward Barnard. It is a two-storey and attic house with a basement. The left-hand bay is rendered, while the rest is ashlar. The basement is rusticated, with quoins visible. An ashlar band runs above the ground floor, topped by a moulded cornice and a blocking course. The roof is slate, with a mansard partition to accommodate an attic window. Originally with four windows, the house originally had three, and features glazing bar sash windows. A mid-19th century addition is on the left-hand side, comprising an angled ground floor bay. A simple Doric portico, approached by steps with railings, originally fronted the central bay, leading to a six-panel door and a decorated rectangular overlight. Inside, there is an elegant late Regency staircase, and a segmental arch in the hall with a panelled soffit.
