Description
Newton Bank is an earlier 19th century single storey and attic farmhouse designed in an L-plan, with a later single storey block added at the rear re-entrant. The building features rubble construction with stugged and margined ashlar dressings and a purple slate roof. The original windows were 12-pane sash and case, though some have been altered to 4-pane and plate glass. The attic includes gable dormerheads with triangular-headed windows and intersecting astragals. The eaves are bracketted, and there are linked and corniced ashlar end stacks.
On the south elevation, the facade is symmetrical with three bays. A gabled porch is located at the centre, featuring a semi-glazed door with sidelights and an astragalled fanlight within a chamfered pointed doorcase. There is a fanlight at the inner door with pointed astragals, and a window on either side, along with dormerheaded windows in the attic to the left and right.
The west elevation has a gable to the right and a window at the ground floor on the left. There is a slightly lower and recessed bay to the left with a plate glass window at ground floor and a dormerheaded window above.
The north elevation shows the original gable to the right as blank, while the left side features a door and a bipartite window in the later gable.
The east elevation has the original gable on the left with a lean-to privy, and a later bay slightly advanced to the right that includes a bipartite window.
The interior has not been seen. The property is enclosed by a rubble wall on the south, east, and west sides, and there is a pentice-roofed rubble outbuilding built into the fall of the ground to the north.
