Description
Easton House is a house likely built around 1600, featuring ashlar stone and a double-Roman tiled roof with coped verges and three brick stacks. The building has a through-passage plan, although its facade is nearly symmetrical. It stands two storeys high with an attic and consists of two bays on the left and three bays on the right. The ground floor has 4-light moulded stone-mullioned windows, with the left and right bays featuring a continuous stopped label. The first floor has 3-light windows with a similar design, all fitted with iron casements and square-paned leaded lights. The door is set in a moulded stone frame with a 4-centred arch head and is made of planks with iron strap hinges. The right side of the house has 2-light stone-mullioned windows. There is also an ashlar forecourt wall topped with iron spear capping.
