Description
Worcester House is a double-depth central entrance plan building, likely dating from the 18th century. It has three storeys and two windows at the front. The exterior is finished with roughcast render, probably over brick and lined out to resemble ashlar, and has a Welsh slate roof. The entrance features a six-panel door with a panelled architrave and a flat hood supported by brackets. The windows are replacement sash windows, with 8 over 8 panes set within smooth rendered architraves. The top floor windows are smaller but retain the 8 over 8 pane configuration. A later central window on the first floor has a 3 over 3 sash. The roof is plain, with a stack on each gable. The rear elevation was not visible during a recent inspection. The interior was not inspected.
