Description
Belmont House is a two-storey building dating from the 19th century, featuring a three-window whitewashed brick front, a hipped slate roof, and end brick chimney stacks, with the right stack replaced over a broad chimney breast. The house has a dentil eaves band and one skylight. On the first floor, there is a small pane sash window to the right and top hung casements to the left, all with voussoir lintels. The ground floor has tripartite small pane windows. A central porch, which is closed on the sides, has fluted columns and a half-glazed four-panel door with panelled reveals. The side and rear elevations are pebbledash, with two dormers and some small pane sash windows, along with gabled and modern cross ranges.
Inside, the house is largely from the mid-19th century, featuring reeded architraves on the doorways. The staircase is accessed through a broad hallway arch and has a scrolled end to the balustrade.
