Budgate House

Budgate House is an early to mid-18th century, two-storey and attic house with a wide, five-bay symmetrical plan, facing south. The building features pinned random rubble with ashlar dressings. The central door is flanked by three bays that are slightly closer together, with a smaller window to the left of the front door and narrow first-floor windows. All architraves have plain chamfers. The east gable has one ground floor window, two first-floor windows, and two attic vents, while the west gable includes one first-floor window, one small attic window, and one vent. There are two small piended dormers with 12-pane glazing, cavetto moulded copes to the end stacks, crowsteps, and a slate roof with a stone ridge.

The rear elevation has a later ground floor addition that obscures the original fenestration, but the first floor retains its original symmetry, featuring a small window in the centre of the gablet stack flanked by single windows.

Inside, there is a central staircase with stone steps and moulded risers, alongside a rounded and chamfered centre spine wall. The half landings are stone flagged, and original turned wooden balusters lead to the attic landing. The original ground and first floor plan includes a short front landing that leads left and right off the stairs to a small rear room and large gable-end rooms, with simple original moulded ceiling cornices. Most original architraves and six-panel raised and fielded doors are still intact.
