Description
Riverford is a house dating from around 1800, featuring two storeys and three bays. The exterior is harled with sandstone dressings and angle margins. The original door has been obscured by a full-height projection that includes windows on both floors of the east elevation. Each of the flanking bays has one window per storey. There are also two small piend-roofed dormers. At the rear, there is a central stair window and a blind window on the first floor to the left. Various additions have been made to the ground floor on the right side. The house has sash and case windows, primarily with a 12-pane glazing pattern. It has straight skews, end stacks, and a slate roof.
