Description

Lubborn House, formerly listed as Grove House, is a house located on the north side of Lubborn Lane in Baltonsborough. It dates from the early 19th century, although its core likely has origins from the 17th or 18th century. The building is constructed of stucco and features a glazed pantile roof, divided into three sections with ridges at different heights and coped verges. It has three brick stacks and one ashlar stack, all with moulded caps.

The house is two storeys high and has a symmetrical facade with six bays arranged in a 2:2:2 pattern. There is a pilaster to the left and between the second and third bay sets. The windows include 12 and 16-pane sash windows, except for the left two bays on the ground floor and the right two bays on the ground floor, which have French windows with glazing bars and marginal lights, all set in plain architraves with cornice drips.

There are two door openings: to the left, a six-panelled door with a transom light in a plain architrave with a cornice drip; to the right, a semi-circular head door opening with a six-panelled door, where the top two panels are glazed, featuring panelled reveals and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars, topped with an open triangular pediment on pilasters.
