Description
The Parsonage at Dunmore Park is an early 19th century, two-storey Tudor villa with an irregular plan, constructed from dressed sandstone. It features a smaller, lower, recessed service wing on the right and a gabled front elevation, with additional buildings located at the rear. The villa includes stone mullions and has coped parapets on the canted windows, as well as sawtooth coped gables.
On the east elevation, the main villa has three gabled bays on the right, with a wider central bay that includes a canted four-light window at ground level and a tripartite window above. The left flanking bay features a lower tripartite stair window, while the other left bay has a door at ground level and a single window above on the first floor. The outer left bays are recessed and are bridged at ground level by a five-light canted window, with two first-floor windows above that break the eaves in gabled dormerheads. The lower service wing on the right has a slightly advanced gabled bay and two additional gabled dormerheads.
The villa has timber sash and case windows with a four-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slate, and there are towering, coped ridge stacks that enhance the skyline. The interior was not seen in 1998.
