Description

The Wight House in Oldhamstocks is a late 18th century, 2-storey house that includes a single storey block and an additional outbuilding. The main structure is built of rubble, which was formerly harled, and features ashlar margins.

On the north elevation, the house has three bays and a 19th century pilastered doorpiece that includes a panelled door with a decorative fanlight. There are windows in the flanking bays and above in each bay at the first floor. The single storey cottage block to the east is mostly blank, featuring only a door and a small window. To the outer left, there are two low, recessed bays of the outbuilding, which contain two doorways.

The south elevation features a stair window at the centre of the 2-storey house, flanked by windows on both floors. The single storey block includes a pantry light and window, as well as a late 19th century gabled dormer. Most of the sash and case windows have a 12-pane glazing pattern. The gable end stacks are partly brick repaired, and the roofs are covered with grey slate and decorative clay ridge tiles for both the 2-storey house and the single storey block, while the outbuilding has a pantiled piend roof.

The property includes retaining walls with an ashlar coped rubble parapet on the north garden front, which features two separate cast-iron gates. There are also higher rubble boundary walls to the east and a walled garden adjoining to the west.
