Pennant

Pennant is a house dating back to the mid 18th century, with later additions and alterations. The main house is brick with slate roofs and prominent brick end wall stacks. It is three storeys high, featuring a shallow front range with three rear wings. The front of the house, facing southeast, has five bays, with a slightly projecting central bay. The central entrance is distinguished by glazed doors and a finely gauged brick head with a moulded entablature hood. The windows above and in the flanking bays are 12-pane sashes, with 6-pane sashes in the attic storey. These windows are also framed by finely gauged brick heads with stressed keys. The different storeys are visually separated by plain, projecting string courses, and the lower storey is emphasised by brick quoins to the outer angles and the central bay. The upper storey includes plain pilasters. The southwest rear wing is largely from the mid 18th century, though the upper storey is a later addition. It features paired 12-pane sash windows on the lower storeys, with 6-pane sashes in the attic. A plain string course runs between the ground and first floors. A rear bay is a later addition but may incorporate elements of an earlier structure, evidenced by stonework in the lower part of its rear wall. The northeast wing has a cast-iron mullioned and transomed window in the rear gable, along with sash windows above.

Brick walls connect the main house to stable and laundry pavilion blocks, likely added during an early 19th-century remodelling. The laundry, situated to the northeast, has cast-iron mullioned and transomed windows on each floor in its gable. A similar window and doorway face the house. The stable, to the southwest, features paired, segmentally arched doorways facing the house and high-set windows in its gable. The stable retains its original stall dividers.

The interior layout is centred around a main entrance and stair hall, with principal rooms located in the front range and southwest wing. Most of the interior detailing is from the early 19th century, including panelled doors with rebates, window shutters, simple plaster cornices featuring egg and dart and beading, marble fireplace surrounds, and decorative cast iron grates. One upper room retains mid 18th-century ceiling plasterwork, depicting a moulded central octagon containing a branch, a fish, a bird, and a sun in relief. The staircase, located behind the entrance hall, is also from the mid 18th century, with alternately twisted and fluted balusters (two per tread), moulded tread ends, a swept rail, and dado panelling.
