Description

House now three dwellings. 17th century, modified and extended in the early 19th century, converted in 1987.

The building comprises an L-plan with the north (rear) wing dating from the 17th century and the south (front) cross wing an extension in villa style. It is constructed with an ashlar façade to the front, with coursed, squared stone and ashlar dressings to the rear. The front range has Welsh slates to the front roof pitches and asbestos tiles to the rear; the rear range has a clay pantile roof.

The front is 2 storeys with 3 bays. A plinth and band course run across the façade with rusticated quoins at the corners. The central bay contains a round-arched, beaded and imposted former doorway, now blocked, with a window set under a plain fanlight above. The other bays have 16-pane sash windows in plain surrounds with keyed lintels. The right-hand bay features an early 20th-century bay window with plain sashes and a hipped slate roof at ground floor level. The roof is hipped with wide oversailing eaves and has a brick chimney stack to the right end.

To the rear, a blocked central doorway is flanked by 1987 doorways. A central first-floor window retains early 20th-century stained glass with a timber lintel. On the left, a one-bay link features 1987 windows, with the first-floor example retaining a timber lintel. Projecting from this is the 2-bay 17th-century range. This has a board door to the right set within a lean-to conservatory. Two 2-light mullioned windows occupy the ground floor: the left has ovolo-moulding set in a wave-moulded recess, the right chamfered-moulding in a chamfered recess, both containing rectangular-leaded casements. First-floor windows date from 1987 and have concrete lintels. Further left is an early 20th-century single-storey bay of special interest.

No 4 Cranleigh Court, attached to the rear and built in 1987, is not included in this listing.
