Description
Stanley House is a three-storey building facing Market Square, featuring four windows with sash glazing, each having a single large pane. The front elevation, which faces the square, is roughcast, while the roof has a bituminous coating on the left side and slate on the right. It has large rectangular chimneys. The entrance includes a doorcase with a cornice and panelled soffits, leading to a panelled door. To the right, there is a small dormer with small pane glazing and a two-storey advanced wing that is crenellated, featuring a sash window on the first floor and a doorway with a restaurant front.
The rear elevation, facing east, was rebuilt in the late 19th century, with render and exposed stone dressings, while a tower is constructed in exposed stone. The ground drops steeply down to Victoria Road, where the building has four storeys with two advanced bays, stepped gables with finials, and mullioned windows—two-light on the top floor and three-light on the others. To the right, there is a gable with a finial and a four-light mullioned window spanning two floors, below which is an advanced crenellated block that is two storeys high, featuring a segmental-headed doorway to the left. To the right, there is an engaged cylindrical tower built on the site of a Roman tower, which is also crenellated and has two-light mullioned windows on the top floor and four-light mullioned and transomed windows on the lower floors.
The south gable end is stepped with small windows, while the north gable, which faces the churchyard, incorporates a Roman wall and features a mullioned and transomed window with cusped heads.
