GV II*
House, later divided into 2; now offices. Early C19 front; early C17 core to part. Faced in white brick with a parapet and a raised stucco band. Plaintiled roofs, the central section fully hipped. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys, attics and cellars. 12 window range, arranged 4:4:4, with the centre, which breaks forward slightly, higher at parapet and upper window level than the 2 sides. All 1st storey windows are 12-pane sashes, the centre 4 in plain reveals, the northern 4 in flush cased frames and the southern 4 blocked: all have flat gauged arches. A stucco band runs at ground and 1st storey sill level in the central block. On the ground storey of the central block are 2 small-paned semicircular-arched windows flanked by 2 semicircular-arched doorways with deep stuccoed reveals and 6-panel doors. The ground storey of the south end has two 12-pane sash windows in flush cased frames and 2 blanks. On the north, 3 segmental-headed dormers with 2-light small-paned casement windows; on the south, one flat-headed C20 dormer. INTERIOR: C19 brick-lined cellar with wine bins. The north end of the building encases 2 long bays of early C17 timber-framing: on the ground storey, main beams with ovolo-moulding; on the 1st storey, several 4-panel doors with bolection moulded panels and original H-L hinges; one room with full bolection moulded panelling and a good early C18 fireplace with enriched eared architrave. A rear wing is also basically C17: a 3-light small-paned sliding sash window in the apex of the gable. The central section of the house has later C18 features: a large upper room which runs from front to back has a rounded rear bay with 3 long 12-pane sash windows and a fireplace surround in Adam style. Some sash windows have panelled internal shutters with applied mouldings. Early C19 features have been superimposed on the earlier fabric: the main geometrical stair has stick balusters, panelled square newels, curved handrails and a balustraded
landing. The back stairs, partly straightened in the later C20, are similar in form. From c1790 to his death in 1831 the house was occupied by Sir Thomas Gery Cullum and his wife Lady Mary Cullum.
