Description

Myrtle House is a house from the early 19th century, constructed of coursed and squared rubble with a slate roof featuring coped verges and end brick stacks. The building has an asymmetrical frontage and stands two storeys tall with four bays, each fitted with 16-pane sash windows. The door opening is located in the third bay from the left and features a half-glazed door beneath a stone portico, which is supported by paired Doric columns that hold up a cornice and entablature, with pilasters on the wall.
