Description
Morecambe House is a late 18th-century house located in St Mary’s Street, Axbridge. The house is constructed of roughcast with rusticated end pilasters, topped with a parapet featuring moulded coping and coped verges. The roof is double Roman tile, with two rendered stacks and one brick stack.
The building is symmetrical in design, with two storeys and three bays. The upper floor has 12-pane sash windows, while the ground floor has 16-pane sash windows. A recessed central door opening contains a 6-panelled door and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars, all supported by an open triangular pediment resting on reeded pilasters.
A wing extends at a right angle to the rear of the main house, featuring 20th-century casement windows, and a 6-panelled door accessed by a set of two stone and two concrete steps. The interior retains features from the original construction period.
