Description
Corntown Court is a two-storey building constructed of limewashed rubble, with rendering on the side and rear. It features a Welsh slate roof, boarded eaves, and end stacks, with rendered material on the left and dressed stone on the right. The building has a five-bay frontage, with the central bay projecting forward and featuring a gabled porch. There is a further set-back bay on the left, and the layout follows a double pile plan.
On the first floor, there are 2/2 pane horned sash windows with timber lintels, and below them are 4/4 pane horned sashes with cambered heads. The porch entrance is elliptical arched, adorned with dressed stone voussoirs, stone seats, and a panelled door. The left (west) frontage has twin gables, and the first floor of the rear wing includes 4/4 pane sashes. At the northeast corner, there is a very broad dressed stone stack at the end of the kitchen range. The interior has been refurbished and replanned.
