Description
Winpenny House is a house dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, possibly extended on the left side and reroofed in the early 19th century. The house was refenestrated on the north front in the early 20th century. It features roughcast over rubble with a hipped slate roof and overhanging eaves. There is a lower hipped service wing to the left. The building has a double pile plan with the service wing to the west.
It stands two storeys tall with a 1:4 bay arrangement; the main block is divided into 1:3 bays with a slightly projecting left bay. The first floor has a 16-pane sash window on the right and a 20th-century many-paned 2-light casement window on the left. On the ground floor, there is a similar casement window on the left and a 16-pane sash window on the right, flanking a six-panel raised and fielded door set in a semicircular headed recess. This door features a fanlight and is sheltered by a wooden trelliswork porch with a steeply pitched hipped lead roof. The service wing on the left also has 2-light casements.
The right return includes one 3-light 19th-century leaded iron casement, while the rest of the fenestration is early 20th-century with shutters. The rear elevation has similar features. The interior was altered in the early 20th century.
