Description

The Court House features a house with painted roughcast cladding and a slate hipped roof that has wide eaves and a brick stack on the right. It has a near square plan and a two-storey facade with two windows facing the road, with the entrance located in the right side elevation. The facade includes a 12-pane hornless sash window on each floor to the left, and a fine two-storey canted bay window on the right, which has a 12-pane sash window in each light. The right end wall has a two-window range that is offset to the right, featuring three 12-pane sash windows and a doorway with a porch beneath the left-hand window. The semi-elliptical arched doorway has flush-panelled reveals, a fanlight with radiating tracery, and a six-panelled door with the top four panels fielded. The painted timber porch has slightly bulbous turned columns and a slate gabled roof with bargeboards. The porch is not mentioned in the 1978 description, and the left stack noted then is no longer present.

The front features iron railings with plain rails that alternate with more ornate cast-iron heads, along with urn caps on the main stanchions. There is an iron gate to the left and painted roughcast piers to the right, which have concave-sided pyramid caps and small ball finials.

Inside, there is a contemporary staircase at the east end of the hall, featuring straight balusters and a mahogany rail, illuminated by a semi-circular headed window.
