Description

Detached five-bay two-storey house, built c.1860, having breakfront to front (east) elevation. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks to ends. Painted rendered walls with rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings to first floor and segmental to ground floor, having painted sills and replacement uPVC windows. Round-headed door opening with double-leaf timber panelled door and spoked fanlight. Outbuildings to yard to rear. Recent rendered piers and flanking walls to site entrance to north. Rubble stone boundary walls.

Appraisal

The broad elevation of this house is counterpointed by the vertical emphasis of the tall window openings. The breakfront adds interest to the front and emphasizes the central entrance. The house is set in mature grounds, contextualized by outbuildings to rear.
