No 59 The Abbey House, Forecourt Walls, Gate Piers, And Lamp Overthrow

No 59 The Abbey House is a house that dates back to the 16th century, was rebuilt in the 17th century, and has 19th-century additions. It features a rendered exterior and a double-Roman tile roof with two coped gables at the front, each with bases for finials. There are three stacks, two made of rendered brick and one made of stone with a moulded cap. The facade is symmetrically arranged and has two storeys and an attic, with three bays. The windows include two and four-light ovolo-moulded stone-mullioned windows under stopped labels, and a single light opening in a similar surround at the centre of the first floor. To the left side of the ground floor is a cambered ashlar bay window with a flat roof, and the door opening is nearly central in a plain stone surround, topped with an edge-moulded slab stone hood supported by shaped stone brackets, leading to a six-panelled door.

To the left, there is a two-storey outshut that is set back, featuring a large sash window with glazing bars on the first floor and a smaller four-light window on the ground floor. To the right is a single-storey outshut with a 20th-century flat roof and casements. Inside, the room to the right on the ground floor has a four-panelled moulded framed ceiling, a fireplace in a four-centred stone surround, and a shell-headed niche with shaped wooden shelves. There are also winder stairs and two additional fireplaces in four-centred stone surrounds on the first floor.

The forecourt is enclosed by a rubble wall with dressed stone coping, and there are central ashlar gate piers with moulded caps. A wrought iron lamp overthrow with a lamp and pegged oak latticework gates complete the entrance.
