SPEXHALL
WASH LANE
Spexhall House
(formerly listed as Spexhall House, CHURCH LANE)
II
Former parsonage house. C17 core; modernised in early C19; front dated 1822 with initials R.C. for Richard Crutwell, Ll.B., the then incumbent. Timber-framed, encased in early C19 red brick on front and sides, painted on the front only; plastered rear; black glazed pantiles to front slope of roof, clay pantiles to rear slope. An internal chimney stack with a large plain red brick shaft. Two storeys and attics. Most windows are of the early C18: three-light casement type with transomes, square leaded panes, and pintle hinges; one cross window in the same style. These seem to have been reset in the brick front from an earlier phase of the house. Dating from 1822 are the two canted bay windows to the ground floor, one on the front and the other on the south end, with pointed Gothick tracery to the lights, and the single-light window in the same style beside the entrance door; also the entrance doorway with reeded architrave, entablature, and panelled linings. Door with six-flush panels. No earlier features are said to be visible inside the house, but the overall form suggests a basic three-cell internal chimney house with cross-entry. The entrance door may well be still in its original position. A two storey extension at the rear, parallel with the front, of circa 1870, in red brick with clay pantiles.
