Description
Tower House is a house featuring painted stucco cladding and a slate roof, which includes three roof lights and a small brick chimney on the left end. The building has a prominent three-storey front with three windows, although the top storey, made of brick and likely added soon after 1900, has four 20th-century plate-glass windows that replaced the original sash windows.
On the first floor, there are large canted oriel windows from around 1900 on each side, each consisting of three sash lights with glazing bars only in the upper parts of the sashes, totaling 15 panes at the front and six on the sides. The oriels feature blind cambered arches above the windows and ornate cornices supported by closely spaced moulded brackets. The plain bases of the oriels may have been altered. In the center of the first floor, there is a single four-pane sash window.
On the ground floor, there are triple sash windows with a configuration of 2-4-2 panes on either side of a central 20th-century four-panel door with a plain overlight. The right end wall of the house is windowless.
