Description
Wynne's Park Nursing Home is a 2-storey and attic small country house built in the Arts and Crafts style. It features painted roughcast elevations, slate roofs, roughcast chimney stacks, and leaded glazing. The front of the house has an asymmetrical design with three bays, highlighted by a projecting gabled porch made from reused masonry, though this stone was not sourced from a previous building on the site, as indicated by the first edition Ordnance Survey map. The gable, designed in a 17th-century style, is roughcast and includes an apex finial and semicircular ornament at the base of the stone parapet. A central lozenge-shaped datestone is inscribed with 'G S G 1905 F', accompanied by axial roundels.
Above the recessed entrance, there is a 3-light leaded glazed timber-framed window with a bracketed hood, splayed jambs, and a segmental-headed studded door. To the right, a taller gabled bay features a distinctive 2-storey oriel bay with a bracketed hood on top and console brackets at the base. The leaded glazing on the first floor has been replaced, and the two floors are connected by timber pilasters, adorned with a stuccoed garland at the center. The attic window has a full-width dripmould, suggesting the gable once jutted out. To the left of the porch, the eaves are supported by rounded iron brackets, and there is a bracketed and splayed oriel along with an offset 5-light window on the first floor. A chimney stack has been removed from the rear, and the downpipes are dated 1905. The left gable-end features end pilaster strips and a blind semicircular arch over a 4-light window on the first floor, with a 5-light window below. The right-hand elevation has a similar design with an advanced gable at the center, featuring 2 and 3-light windows. There is also a small, single-storey service block at right angles to the main building.
Inside, the parlour to the left of the entrance hall is well-preserved, showcasing a 3-well ceiling enriched with plasterwork foliage trails along the cornice and beams. The segmental-headed chimneypiece has a marble surround and retains some original window furniture. The staircase features a simple Arts and Crafts openwork balustrade with a panelled newel and finial, while one room on the first floor has a barrel-shaped ceiling. This listing does not include the modern ranges attached to the rear.
