Description

Otterden House is a late 18th century building that has been restored. It features harled, grey painted stone dressings and has two storeys with a three-window facade. The central doorway is pilastered, and there are splayed bays on either side that extend to full height. The house has a ridge roof with end stacks and includes a pentice addition to the right. At the rear, there is a one-storey kitchen wing. The building was modified in 1926.
