Description
East Fenton is an earlier 19th century, two-storey, three-bay classical farmhouse that has been made into an L-plan by a later 19th century rear extension wing. The building is constructed from squared and snecked rubble with ashlar dressings and droved margins, featuring a raised base course on the south side.
On the southeast elevation, there is an advanced central bay with broad angle pilasters. The entrance is framed by a pilastered doorpiece, with flanking windows that are smaller on the first floor. There is a cornice and a blocking course above. The two-storey projecting rear wing includes a central projecting stair bay in the re-entrant angle, which is masked at the ground level by a porch.
The windows are sash and case style, with 12-pane glazing, and the left window at the rear has a lying-pane. The building has end stacks with moulded coping and decorative cans, and a slate-pitched roof. Additionally, there is a rubble, brick-lined walled garden adjoining to the west.
