Brent House

Brent House, now a doctor's surgery, was built in the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of Flemish-bond brick, with stone cills and a cill band to the first floor, and has a slate roof with brick stacks positioned near the right and left gable ends. The building follows a double-depth plan and is two stories high with a basement, featuring a five-window front. Windows have flat gauged brick arches; the first-floor windows are primarily 3/6-pane sashes, with one blind window to the left, while the ground floor has three 6/6-pane sashes above segmental brick arches and stone cills to the semi-basement. Between the windows are two large semicircular door openings with double-stepped gauged brick and painted-over traceried fanlights. Each doorway has double doors, featuring one raised-and-fielded panel at the top and two reeded panels below. A slightly set-forward range, level with the brick plinth, contains a 20th-century door set within a flat gauged brick arch.

The rear of the house has five 3/6-pane sash windows to the first floor. Below the outer two windows are single-storey, flat-roofed gazebos with curved inner corners, each with a moulded architrave framing a hemispherical-topped niche facing the courtyard. Ground floor windows flank a wide elliptical arch with a painted-over traceried fanlight above a 20th-century door. A trellised swept verandah roof with a metal scalloped edge extends over a frieze of ovals, supported by fine paired cast-iron trellis elements with diamond patterns on the verticals. Three wide elliptical arches with a sun-ray pattern fill in the spandrels. The interior was not inspected.
