Description
Parade House is a three-storey building from the mid-19th century, featuring roughcast and painted walls with decorative bands on both floors and a Welsh slate roof. The layout is a double depth central entrance plan with a staircase located at the rear. The façade includes three bays of paired Tudor Gothic style windows, which have double hung sashes and 4-centred heads, alongside a central single window. The Gothic style porch has a 4-centred arch flanked by lancet windows, and it contains a 6-panel door with a transom light and a tented slate roof. On either side of the porch are one over one pane sashes, while the first floor has 4 over 4 sashes and the second floor features 2 over 4 sashes. The building has a hipped roof with tall flanking stacks at both the front and rear.
To the left, there is a mid-19th century two-storey extension with two gables, the first of which is wider than the second. This extension has large windows on the ground floor and smaller paired windows on the first floor, all with 4-centred heads. The rear elevation includes a full-height canted bay to the left, likely an alteration from the 1840s, featuring triple 1 over 1 pane sashes on the ground floor and 2 over 2 pane sashes above. To the right of the bay are arched stair windows on the half-floor, both with 8 over 8 pane sashes. The ground floor is partially obscured by a 20th-century conservatory, but the first floor on the right has a 6 over 6 pane sash, and the second floor has a 3 over 6 pane sash.
The interior, which was only partly observed during the resurvey, has a predominantly mid-19th century character. However, the staircase appears to date from around 1780, featuring a cut string, turned balusters, and a continuous mahogany rail. Its generous open-well design suggests it may be even older.
