2/27 Coney Weston House -

- II

House. Part early C17, part mid C18, with later extensions. Part timber- framed and rendered, but mainly encased in red brick of circa 1870, with an early C20 single-storey extension along the south side. The roofs are covered with unusual angular roman tiles. One internal chimney-stack with sawtooth shaft and oversailing top course. Mainly large-paned sash windows. Doorcase with flat pediment, console brackets, and raised panels to jambs. 4-panelled door with plain rectangular fanlight. The oldest part is a 2-cell range at the north end of the house, aligned east-west: this probably formed the whole of the original building. The internal chimney-stack, with back-to-back hearths, heated the 2 rooms on the ground storey. On its west side, the fireplace has a plastered arched surround, and is lined with antique blue-and- white Delft tiles. Ovolo-moulded main beams, and one small 3-light ovolo- moulded mullioned window, which formed part of a larger window, on the south side; another similar window-outline visible in the plaster of the upper storey. A small wing extends northwards at right-angles from this range. The central section of the house contains a large entrance-hall, with a large and very fine C18 stair, with moulded balusters and a sinuous handrail continued to form a gallery on the upper landing. The south side contains a range of 3 Georgian rooms, linked by archways and extended southwards in the early C20. These have good features: plaster cornices with egg-and-dart ornament, and ornate fireplaces with eared architrave, pulvinated frieze and ball-and-reel decoration. The room in the south-east angle is very high, with 2 pine main beams, ovolo-moulded, a fireplace with eared architrave and festoon, and a raised cast-iron hob grate. A number of 6-panelled doors.
