Description

Newhouse is an earlier 19th century farmhouse featuring two storeys and a basement, with a three-bay classical design and a single-storey wing. The building is constructed of rubble, squared and snecked on the south side, with chamfered, raised ashlar quoins and a base course, along with ashlar dressings.

On the south elevation, there is a raised bay at the centre that includes a pilastered doorpiece, a plate glass fanlight, and a panelled door. The windows are symmetrical, and there is an eaves cornice with a blocking course that is raised at the centre. To the outer left, there are two single-storey bays with piend roofs.

The north elevation features a stair window at the centre, flanked by ground and first-floor windows, with blocked openings to the basement. There are three small lights on a single-storey projection. The windows are plate glass sash and case, and there is a corniced ashlar stack at the east end, which has been renewed at the west end. The roof is covered with slate and has a piended design.
