Description

The Priory is a late 18th century house that faces south, originally set back from the road with its east gable. It has since been extended closer to the road. The house features a main range that is two storeys high with three windows, which has been increased to five. The exterior is finished in white painted render under a tiled roof. The windows are white painted sashes set in black painted frames, with end chimneys at the original part of the house but none on the newer eastern section. There is a canted bay window on the left, which is likely not original, and a central open fronted porch that also appears to be a later addition, featuring bargeboards and a modern door.

On the front elevation, the upper windows consist of nine panes in hornless sashes. The bay window and two other front windows are 12-pane sash windows. The sides of the bay window have horned sashes that are one pane wide. The joinery is well-crafted with thin glazing bars, and the stone sills are complemented by cambered arches over two of the lower windows. The window on the right is a modern double French window.

To the left, there is a flat-roofed garage with a small roof-tiled upstand at the front.

Inside, the house retains chamfered beams and a notable open-well staircase that is not in its original location. The staircase features timber handrails, thin turned newels, inch-square balusters, and bracketed treads.
