Description

Castle House is a two-storey, double fronted house built from rubble stone, topped with a slate roof and featuring a stone stack. The first floor has three 4-pane horned sash windows, each with deep stone lintels and shallow stone sills. The ground floor includes a central entrance doorway with a rectangular overlight and a 6-panel door. To the left of the doorway is a 20th-century window with a similar lintel and sill, while to the right is a large bay window with a hipped stone-tiled roof; the front of the bay has a broad 5-light window with panes arranged in 8+8+8+8+8.

The southeast gable features a centrally projecting chimneystack with offsets, and within the middle wall of the stack are stones with small circular recesses, which may be reused fragments of a medieval arrow loop. To the left of the stack is a small square attic window and a 2+2 pane casement window on the first floor.

The house has a two-unit plan with a central entrance corridor that leads to rear service rooms. The ground-floor room to the left of the entry has a 20th-century fireplace with a marble surround and roundels at the angles. The upper floors were not seen during the inspection.
