Description
Parrog House, built in the early 19th century, is a large house that has been subdivided. It features rubble stone construction, partly rendered, with a slate roof and prominent stone end stacks. The building is three storeys tall with an attic and has a three-window range. The upper half of the facade is rendered and whitewashed, while the lower half displays exposed stone. The original windows included 9-pane sashes on the second floor and 12-pane sashes on the first and ground floors. Currently, one original window remains on the ground floor, two on the first floor, and one on the second floor. The ground floor windows have exposed stone voussoirs and slate sills.
The paired central arched doorways lead to Parrog House, which has a six-panel door featuring some fielded panels, an arched head, a radiating bar fanlight, and remnants of panelled reveals on the left side. The porch is supported by timber columns, with a single column on the left, a half-column on the right, and one half-column respond, topped with a pedimental gable that has a fretted bargeboard. The adjoining Sunnymeade has a half-glazed door with a radiating bar fanlight but lacks panelling on the reveals and features a 20th-century large glazed porch. The roof has two 20th-century flat dormers.
The west wall is rendered, while the east wall is stone. The rear wall is fully slate-hung and has a three-window range with some original windows still partly intact: two 12-pane sashes on the second floor, one 16-pane sash on the right side, and a central round-headed stair-light with intersecting glazing bars.
The front garden for both houses is a large U-shaped plot, enclosed by a whitewashed rubble retaining wall with slate coping and low spearhead iron railings. There is a central rubble dividing wall. Sunnymeade features a spearhead iron pedestrian gate set between stone piers at the head of the garden, while Parrog House has impressive grey ashlar rusticated piers at the carriage entry, adorned with a fluted band beneath shallow pyramid caps.
