II

House. Early to mid C19. Rendered, solid walls; lower section to right is of painted stone rubble. MATERIALS: slated roofs, the slates on lower section behing of asbestos; main roof has crested red ridge tiles. Red brick chimney with 8 good pots on right-hand side wall. PLAN: main house probably has double-depth plan. EXTERIOR: main house is 4-storeyed with 2-window front; 2-storeyed section to right is now only 1 window wide, although part of it appears to have been demolished to insert a small courtyard. Ground storey is rusticated, with raised band at sill level in second storey. Doorway to left is round-arched with moulded imposts, flanked by pilasters supporting an entablature with bracketed cornice. Recessed 6-panelled door with patterned fanlight above; ornate iron footscraper within doorway, inset on left side. Upper storeys retain faint traces of masonry markings; windows have moulded architraves. Bracketed wooden eaves cornice. All windows contain sashes, those in third and fourth storeys with 1 upright glazing bar per sash. 2-storeyed section to right has a single blind window in ground storey, apparently infilling an earlier, wider opening. Right-hand, stone rubble side wall, presumably a later addition, has a late C20 garage door, with iron girder for a lintel, in ground storey. In centre of upper storey is a large, mid C19 round-arched window. This contains a 2-light wooden casement with 3 panes per light; below it is a fixed, 5- pane sash and above it a transom-light with interlacing Gothic glazing bars. To the left of this window is a much smaller one with a fixed 4- pane sash. INTERIOR not inspected.
