Description

Walston House, completed in the spring of 1829, was originally built as a parish manse. It is a two-storey building with three bays, featuring a central doorcase that is pilastered and includes a panelled door with a fanlight above. The exterior is constructed with squared courses and has contrasting ashlar dressings. The windows are sash style with a 12-pane glazing pattern. The house has end stacks and a slate roof, which has solar panels installed at the rear. There are low out-buildings and a walled garden on the property.
