II*

1794. A house of symmetrical form, with detached lower flanking structures (similar but not identical) set back on each side but connected by low walls, and a forecourt to the main (garden, south-east) front enclosed by wrought-iron rails and regularly placed brick piers. Two storeys and attic. The south-east facade has 2.1.2 windows, a steeply-pitched hipped tile roof, 2 flat-roofed dormers, fully-moulded modillion cornice, the projecting centrepiece having an open pediment enclosing a lunette. Red brick walling in Flemish bond, rubbed flat arches, stone cills, plinth. Sashes in reveals. The doorcase has a segmental pediment, cornice, pulvinated frieze, scroll brackets above narrow panelled pilasters, architrave (many mouldings are carved), fanlight with curved glazing, ½-glazed door, flight of stone steps curving outwards and supporting on each side wrought-iron rails. The grassed courtyard (with paved footways) is enclosed by brick piers, each having a stone bust on moulded square base, above a thin moulded cap, the space between the piers having a low brick wall supporting wrought-iron rails containing ornamental features. Near the house on each side, and on the axis of the forecourt, the rails are raised to provide a decorative top to full-height gates. The north-west elevation has a similar form, but is recessed in the centre, of 1.3.1 windows (one dormer above a round-headed window above the central door). The doorcase has a cornice, frieze, carved brackets above narrow panelled pilasters, architrave and 1/2-glazed door. The sides continue the elevational treatment, with 4 windows to the south-west side and 5 (with a small arched doorway) on the north-east. The flanking units are symmetrical with the front, on the south-west with a small hipped dormer above 2 windows, with projecting quoins; the other unit being slightly wider, of 2 storeys with an arched window above a round-headed doorway set in a slightly projecting brick frame with a gable. Both wings are plain and irregular in their other elevations.
