Description

Erlangen, Mossbank is an early 19th century, two-storey house with an attic and three symmetrical bays. The walls are made of harl pointed rubble, featuring stugged and droved sandstone ashlar dressings, and there are projecting cills at the windows.

The east elevation is symmetrical, with a gabled porch that projects from the center bay. Windows are located in the flanking bays, and there is regular fenestration on the first floor.

The south gable is blank, showing the raggle of a former single-storey outbuilding. The west elevation has a single-storey rubble lean-to at the ground level, with a centrally placed border glazed stair window on the first floor.

The house has modern glazing throughout and a purple grey slate roof, with cement rendered skew copes and bracketted skewputts. There are coped rubble stacks with circular cans.

The garden wall consists of a rubble dwarf wall along the road, which has been built up in blocks where railings have been removed. There is also a rubble wall enclosing the garden to the south and east, incorporating the gable of the former outbuilding.
