Description
Gladstone House is a three-storey, two-window house constructed from coursed rubble masonry, dating from the 19th century. It features a moderately pitched quarry slate roof with deep eaves and verges, exposed purlins, and plain bargeboards. The building has a stone end stack and slate water tabling.
The upper sashes of the second-floor windows are shallow and consist of 12 panes, set under the eaves. The first floor has 16-pane sash windows with stone lintels, rendered reveals, and slate sills. On the ground floor to the left, there is a Victorian sash window with deep stone lintels.
To the right, there is a doorway with a deep stone lintel, featuring a 19th-century door with six deep narrow flush panels and a rectangular fanlight above. The left end wall has a two-window elevation, with a tier of 16-pane sash windows on the left, compressed to the second floor. The right side has similar 12-pane sash windows at the second and first-floor levels only, also with stone lintels.
