Description

Trinity House, which includes an adjacent petrol pump, is a three-storey commercial building with an eclectic Georgian style, dating from the 18th century. The building features rendered elevations, a rubble ground floor, and a hipped slate roof with oversailing eaves, along with a plain rendered chimney.

The front elevation, facing southwest, has a main three-bay section with an additional bay on the right that jetties out slightly at the first floor level and has a slightly angled corner. The ground floor includes a shop front with a central entrance featuring triple multi-pane doors that are deeply recessed between two canted multi-pane bays. A projecting canopy extends along the entire length of this section above the entrance and bays. On the upper storeys, there are 12-pane sash windows in the outer bays and a 6-pane vertical window in the centre, with the second-floor window having external wooden shutters. The advanced right-hand section has a tunnel entrance on the left leading to the rear and a part-glazed door on the right. The first floor has a two-part 8-pane casement window, and there is a small square light on the second floor diagonally above.

The rear elevation, which faces the pond, features a symmetrical main section with three arched niches on the ground floor and two shallow canted oriels on the upper floors. The niches are adorned with segmental fans and baroque busts within the outer ones. The canted oriels have 12-pane central sashes and 8-pane flanking sashes, with small rectangular lights on the far left and right on both floors. There are also 12-pane sashes on the left return of both upper floors. Set back to the left is an adjoining section that has a metal-railed stair leading up in a straight flight to the first floor, where there is a glazed door within a recessed porch and a 6-pane upper window.

In front of Trinity House stands a National Benzole petrol pump from 1926, which is embellished with a polychromed early 19th-century pine figurehead.
