Description
Rock House is a house from the early 19th century, likely a refronting of an 18th-century structure. The building is rendered and features quoin strips, with a double span slate roof and brick stacks. It is two storeys high and has four bays, with 12-pane sash windows. The entrance is located in the second bay on the left and has a pilaster doorcase with a 20th-century partially glazed door. At one time, there was a single-storey verandah on the facade. The rear elevation has cruciform windows, indicating that it may have originally been a late 17th-century building.
