Holyland

Holyland is a country house featuring painted stucco and slate hipped roofs, with moulded wood eaves on the garden front. The house has mostly removed stuccoed chimneys and stands two storeys tall. It has an irregular long entrance front and a Regency-style southwest garden front, which includes a full-height bow with three windows on the left and two bays on the right, topped with a flat roof over the bay and a hipped main roof. The long 12-pane hornless sashes are full-length on the ground floor, with three windows on each floor in the bow and two on each floor to the right. The central ground floor of the bow features a modern French casement with a tall 3-pane overlight.

The long southeast front elevation has two storeys on the left and three on the right, all under the same roof, with a hipped three-storey projection at the far right. There is a modern flat-roofed single-storey projection against the ground floor. The left half of the upper section has one 12-pane stair light set towards the right, with a ridge chimney above, while the right half features a two-window range of broad sashes, with a square 12-pane window on the top floor and a 16-pane window on the first floor. The ground floor addition has modern broad doors and square 16-pane sash windows, with one window to the left of the door and two to the right. The projecting block to the right has a tall chimney in the valley of the main roof and a 12-pane sash window on the top and first floors in the southwest return elevation, with a windowless southeast end.

The northwest side is mostly windowless and has a hipped roof, with a modern lean-to on the ground floor to the left featuring a 12-pane sash window on each floor above. There is a plain parallel gabled lower service wing against the left end, which has a 12-pane sash window at mid-height in the gable facing the garden. The rear northeast elevation has been much altered with modern windows and a gable end of a service addition to the right. A high garden wall made of stone rubble runs east from the northeast angle of the house.

Inside, the vestibule contains two early to mid 19th-century doorways with reeded architraves and roundels at the angle blocks. The staircase features straight balusters and an open scroll string in the center of the house. The bowed room has a reeded recess with roundels at the angles of the northeast wall and a matching doorcase in the corner of the southeast wall, leading to the corner garden front room, which has a 6-panel fielded-panelled door on the northeast wall in a similar reeded surround.
