Description
Brecon Place and Brecon House is a late Georgian, three-bay house with two storeys and a basement. The front features roughcast that is painted white, topped with a slate roof that has bracketed eaves and stone stacks at both ends. The central entrance, accessed by steps, includes a fielded panel door with the top four panels now glazed, and is topped by a radial-glazed overlight. The lower storey has 20-pane hornless sash windows positioned above basement lightwells. A veranda supported by wooden posts features Tudor arches with diamond latticework in the spandrels and a plastered segmental tunnel vault that includes three skylights. The upper storey contains 16-pane hornless sash windows with hood moulds. The rubble stone L-shaped gable end, originally meant to be a dividing wall, has two external stacks.
The rear elevation, which is roughcast and slightly advanced beyond the adjoining Greenways, includes a two-storey wing on the right side that continues as a lower two-storey former coach house. The main house has two 12-pane hornless sash windows in the upper storey and a 20-pane sash window on the lower left. On the right side, there is a half-glazed panel door with an overlight. The two-window rear wing, facing the yard, features 12-pane hornless sash windows in the upper storey and a 20-pane hornless sash window on the lower left. The former coach house retains 12-pane sash windows in the upper storey, while the lower storey has modern windows infilling former wide lintelled openings and a lean-to entrance porch on the right side leading to the rear dwelling, Brecon House. Not inspected.
