Portway House

Portway House is an early 19th-century house in a row, built slightly back from and set down from the street. A late 19th-century extension and alteration was made to the front. The house is rendered with a colourwashed finish and has a double Roman clay tiled roof with an abutment to the south and a plain gable to the north, featuring an ornamental clay tile ridge and brick chimney stacks.

The house is two storeys with attics, and has a 1+3 bay facade, with the first bay projecting slightly. It features plain sash windows in plain surrounds, with paired sashes on the second and fourth bays at both levels. The entrance is in the third bay, with a six-panel door, a plain architrave, and a pediment hood supported by console brackets. Flat-roofed dormers with four-pane casements are positioned over the second, third, and fourth bays. A ridge stack between the first and second bays indicates that the first bay was likely a later addition to the original symmetrical front, with a further stack located on the right-hand gable.

The interior of the house has not been inspected. It was likely originally built in isolation just outside the town limits, later surrounded by Victorian development.
