Woodlands House

Woodlands House is a house built around 1790, with an enlargement in the early 19th century. It features roughcast over brick, a hipped slate roof, and a modillion cornice, along with brick stacks topped with twisted chimney pots. The house has a double pile design with semi-circular bow wings. It stands two storeys high and has three bays, with 12-pane sash windows that have wooden trellis surrounds. The entrance includes a central pedimented pilaster door case with half-glazed double doors and sidelights. The right side of the house has a three-bay arrangement of 12-pane sash windows and segmental-headed tripartite sash windows, along with two-light casements at the bottom left. There is a full-height three-window semi-circular bow addition on the right. This house was the residence of John Kenyon, a poet and philanthropist known for introducing Robert Browning to his future wife, Elizabeth Barrett.
