4/108 Whitestone House
- II
Large house. Early C19, partly remodelled in the late C19, rear right wing possibly C18 or earlier in part. Colourwashed and rendered; slate roof, hipped to main range, gabled at ends of rear wings; brick stacks. The early C19 plan may have been bow-fronted: an oval entrance hall probably dates from this period, with principal rooms to left and right and a large stair hall with an open well stair behind the oval room. Rear left and right wings form a U-plan, originally with a narrow rear courtyard which has C20 single-storey infill. The rear right wing, presumably the main service and kitchen wing, extends further back in 2 adjoining ranges which probably pre-date the early C19. In the late C19 the main range was refronted. 2 storeys. Symmetrical 3-bay front with deep eaves with paired brackets, chamfered rusticated quoins and 2-storey bays on either side of a central porch. The front is nicely-detailed with a Corinthian porch with smooth columns and pilasters, a 6-panel front door with a panelled soffit to the doorcase and a glazed lunette. The ground floor bay windows are round-headed 2-pane sashes with faceted keystones and recessed panels in the spandrels; the first floor bay windows are segmental-headed 2-pane sashes with keystones. The windows are all divided by pilasters with Corinthian capitals; first floor centre window is a 2-pane sash with a keystone. The fenestration of the wings is mostly hornless sashes. Interior A number of good internal features. The oval entrance hall has a plaster wall frieze and central plaster motif, the principal rooms on either side also have plaster friezes, the right-hand room has a round-headed wall recess and a C19 chimney piece. The fine open well stair has stick balusters and a ramped handrail. Other joinery includes numerous doors with 6 fielded panels. A very unaltered early and late C19 house with good interior and exterior detail.
