Dabton House

Dabton House is a classical small mansion built around 1820, likely by William Atkinson. It is a two-storey structure made of pink ashlar and features mostly sash windows with 12-pane glazing. The north and south elevations are designed differently, but both have symmetrical fronts with bays that are recessed and stepped down on the east side.

The north elevation, which serves as the entrance, has three bays, with a narrow inner bay that is recessed. It features a roof that extends over a round-headed doorway with a wide two-leaf door and a small-pane fanlight, which is probably not original. The south elevation consists of five bays and includes additions to the east. The inner bay is advanced and has a pediment, with steps leading to a tripartite feature that may have been a former door, set within a shallow segmental-arched panel.

Inside, the ground floor northwest room, identified as the drawing room, has a canted window added around 1860. The west elevation has three bays and includes a low wing and court to the east. The building has a continuous first-floor cill band, a cornice, and stacks with block cornices. The roofs are mostly slated, with piended designs and a platform.
