Description
Bridge House is a substantial L-shaped house, likely built in the 18th century and much altered over time. The east front features a taller south range, while the north range has a long roof with dormers. The west front is two storeys high and includes a rubble wing to the right, with a stucco finish. The building has an old tile roof covered in bitumen and projecting eaves. There are three sash windows with glazing bars, and a lean-to glazed roof covers the ground floor, which has a central doorway underneath.
