5/34 - The Battlies House

- II

House. C16, C18, early C19 and early C20. 2 storeys: irregular form. Early C18 main range in red brick with hipped slate roof and wide eaves overhang. An internal chimney-stack with an ornate Victorian white brick shaft. The bricks of the front are laid in sections in which Flemish and English bond alternate in a very unusual manner; flat pilasters with simply-moulded capitals at the corners of both front and side walls. 3 window range: small-paned sashes in deep reveals; gauged heads and chamfered jambs to surrounds; keystones. Fine doorcase and hood: fluted architrave and jambs; ornately-carved console brackets supporting an early C19 replacement hood with shallow-pitched slate roof, fluted bargeboards and spike finial. A wide half-glazed door, slightly recessed. To the west of this range, and set back, is a small mid-C19 white brick addition with a hipped slate roof and sash windows with single cross- bars to the lights, flat arches and simulated keystones. A complex rear range, at right-angles to the front, in Edwardian red brick with C20 plaintiled roofs, contains the oldest (early C16) part of the house: timber- framed, in 3 bays, with an integral chimney-stack in a half-bay. One 2-bay ground-storey room has an exceptionally heavy ceiling of plain joists and main cross-beams with chamfer and curved stops; on the other side of the stack, a one-bay room has main beams of a similar type. No framing is visible on the upper storey, and the roof has been renewed.
