Courtfield

Courtfield is a detached house built in the early 18th century and later modified in the 19th century, possibly by Henry Wilson while he was working on the nearby Church of St. Mary the Virgin. The building is constructed from near-ashlar Ham stone and features a Welsh slate roof with coped gables and ashlar chimney stacks. It has two storeys with an attic and three storeys overall, comprising six bays.

The first bay is a 19th-century crosswing that rises three storeys and has a slightly projecting gable. It includes a square four-light wide bay window with a flat roof behind a parapet, a three-light plain mullioned window on the first floor under a hood mould, and a two-light window on the second floor with a segmental hood mould. All these windows have architraves that match the retaining windows. The rest of the house retains its 18th-century origins, featuring an eaves course with sawtooth ornament and two-light mullioned windows with headed mullions and architraved surrounds, all rectangular leaded with some iron-traded opening lights and curl stays, as well as internal vertical iron bars.

In the lower bay three, there is a 19th-century part-glazed door in a plain opening, protected by an open stone porch with a semi-circular arch that includes a keystone, imposts, and cornice in a 17th-century style. A 19th-century extension at the rear includes an Italian-style loggia. Inside, some 18th-century details remain, such as coving mouldings on the ceilings, some doors and doorcases, while the staircase appears to be of Regency date, with the remaining work from the 19th century. The house was occupied by the Trask family at the end of the 19th century, with Charles Trask noted as a local historian.
