Description
Newcastle Court is an early 19th-century mansion designed in Regency style with some Picturesque influences, featuring later alterations that include a Gothic arched door and bargeboarded gables, likely added around 1880. The building is two storeys high with attics and has a double pile layout. It is constructed with a rendered, painted rubble plinth and shows traces of painted quoining. The slate roof is hipped on the north side, with an advanced bay featuring a gable on the entrance front and three wide gables on the garden front. The deep-set, boxed eaves have carved end brackets, decorative pierced bargeboards, and pendants.
The mansion has three large brick stacks above a central spine wall, each with four diagonally-set shafts, and a similar triple-shafted stack at the north corner. The garden front features a five-window range with 12-pane sash windows, where the ground floor windows have dropped cills. The central gable has a modern cross-pattern casement that replaced a diamond-shaped opening seen in a 1905 photograph. The flanking gables have pointed arch windows with intersecting tracery, and there are two hipped slate-hung dormers with small-paned sashes between the gables. The projecting end bays have similar window arrangements.
On the entrance front, there are hood moulds over the first-floor window in the advanced bay and over a wide Tudor arch entry, which is infilled with a modern glazed door and surround. A modern glazed porch or conservatory is present on the garden front.
The north-west range is a two-storey ancillary structure with a hipped roof and a single-storey linking block. It is built of coursed rubble with a string course, deep-set eaves, and has slate roof and 3-light sash windows. The link block features a six-panel door with a double-height overlight. Adjoining this is an open-fronted outbuilding with a rubble rear wall, and further along is a two-storey stable or coach house range, also built of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings, a hipped slate roof, voussoir arch double openings, and 12-pane sash windows. The rear elevation mirrors this arrangement with similar sashes, ashlar lintel blocks, and quoins with stippled tooling. The interior is not accessible.
