Description
Wyseby House is an earlier/mid 18th-century three-storey, three-bay house with an additional wide full-height bay added to the east in the 19th century. The house is rendered with painted ashlar margins. The south elevation’s original central panelled door is set within an architrave featuring a pulvinated frieze and cornice, and the first-floor window above is similarly treated, though both are masked by a 19th-century Roman Doric porch of red ashlar, with columns and a pediment. Small paned sash windows are present throughout, and the additional bay mirrors this style, featuring a doorway to a canted projection. An eaves cornice and corniced stacks are also visible.
The slate roof is piended to the right, with straight skews to the west gable and shaped skewputts, and includes an apex ventilator. Low outbuildings adjoin the east wall, while the north (rear) elevation is pebble-dashed, featuring an advanced gable to the left, with the inner bay of the original house projecting.
The interior retains panelled doors in architraves, moulded ceiling cornices, and some original chimney pieces.
