Description

Setonfield is a two-storey, three-bay house built around 1840, designed in a plain classical style. The main elevation features snecked sandstone rubble, while the other sides are constructed of random rubble with broached and droved dressings.

The front elevation has an advanced central bay topped with a blocking course. It includes a four-panelled door with a four-pane fanlight and a hoodmould, which is now situated within a modern glazed lean-to porch. Above the door is a window, with additional windows on either side at both the ground and first floors.

The rear elevation is irregular and lacks distinctive features, but includes a border-glazed stair window and a large piended outshot to the north.

On the north elevation, there is a single first-floor window at the rear, while the south elevation has one ground-floor window at the rear.

The windows are timber sash and case, with 12 panes and lying panes. The roof is piended, covered in graded grey slates, with ashlar stacks at the ends and rear that are shouldered, featuring plain projecting copes and plain cans.

The boundary walls are made of rubble with both rubble and ashlar coping.
