Castle House, Boundary Wall And Gate Piers

Castle House is a pair of 18th-century mill cottages, later converted into a detached house and altered in the 19th century. The building is rough-rendered with an ashlar Doulting stone cornice, topped with a clay tile gabled roof and ashlar chimney stacks at each end. It has a three-window, two-story facade. A stone porch with square Tuscan columns, fielded and moulded panels, a frieze, a moulded cornice, and a plain coped parapet to a flat roof stands at the central entrance. The door is set within a pointed stone arch. Sash windows with stone jambs and stone sills are present, with four panes on the ground floor and twelve panes on the first floor. Approximately one metre high, a coped ashlar stone boundary wall runs alongside the left side of the property. Two 1.2-metre high gate piers, set on plinths with fielded and bead moulded panels, a moulded cornice, and pyramid caps, are located along the wall. The piers are inscribed with "Castle House."
