Description
Dial House is a house dating from the 15th and 16th centuries, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of painted rubble and features a triple-Roman tile roof that is hipped to the right, with a coped verge and a brick and an ashlar stack with a moulded cap. The building has an L-plan layout, originally an open hall house that was later floored, with a wing added at right angles to the rear.
The house is two storeys high and consists of four bays. The windows include one, two, and three-light casements with glazing bars, except for a moulded stone-mullioned window on the left side of the ground floor, which has leaded lights. The door is located in the third bay and is sheltered by a triple-Roman tiled porch, with a mullioned window on each side and paired ribbed doors.
Inside, there are notable features such as two framed ceilings and two fireplaces with massive wooden brassumers. One fireplace has a stone surround with a 4-centred head and moulded jambs, with spandrels carved with foliage and incised initials: "I D". The door opening has a wooden framed shouldered architrave. A significant portion of the medieval roof remains, showing evidence of smoke blackening.
