Description
Haygrass House is a house built around 1800, which underwent refenestration in the early 20th century. It is constructed of ashlar Ham stone and features quoins, a flat string band, and a hipped slate roof with overhanging eaves and brackets. The house has stone stacks facing the center. The layout consists of a double pile facing east with a service wing to the west. It has two storeys and a façade with a 2:1:2 bay arrangement. The central bay is pedimented and slightly projects forward, distinguished by quoins. The first floor has single hung sash windows, while the ground floor features cruciform casements. A central flat-roofed ashlar Doric porch with paired columns supports an entablature and pilaster responds, leading to double panelled and studded doors. The left side, or garden front, has a 3:1 bay arrangement with a full-height canted bay on the right and similar fenestration. The interior has not been seen but retains original shutters. The house is mentioned in Locke's Supplement to Collinson from 1793.
