5/20 The Court House
II
Detached house. Circa 1600 to mid C18. Timber-framed wing to rear, Flemish bond brick to front range, tiled hipped roof with brick stacks. L plan. 2 storey, and attic, 5-window symmetrical front with 1-window extension to right. Central door has rectangular light over and moulded case with segmental hood. To left and right are two cast iron casements with segmental-headed openings. First floor has five cast iron casements. Two hipped dormers to roof. One-bay extension to right has one cast-iron casement to ground floor and first floor. Outshut to rear right has C20 casements. 2-storey, 1-window timber-framed wing to rear left has square panelling on brick plinth with rendered brick infill, windows are cast iron casements as on the front. Interior not accessible at time of survey (July 1984), but R.C.H.M. recorded chamfered beams with ogee stops to ground floor and a mid- Cl8 newel staircase with flat balusters. The timber-framed wing probably represents the remains of a larger range, reduced in length when mid C18 front range added. (Unpublished records of R.C.H.M. (England), Salisbury).
