Description

Hullerhirst is a late 18th century classical house that stands two storeys tall and features three bays. It has a central pediment adorned with a blind bull's eye and terminal urns. The exterior is rendered with painted margins. A 1950s porch unfortunately projects in front of the pedimented door-piece. Most of the original 12-pane glazing remains intact. The house has an eaves course and cornice, a piended slate roof, and symmetrical central stacks. At the rear, there is a low single-storey service wing.

The property is marked by rusticated square gate piers topped with low pyramidal caps and finials.
