George's Park

Detached four-bay two-storey house, built c. 1820, with lower two-storey multiple-bay block to south, with single-storey lean-to extension to rear. Hipped artificial slate roof to main house, pitched to south block, with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings with replacement uPVC windows to main block, and mainly timber sliding sash to south block, three-over-three pane to first and two-over-two pane to ground. Replacement timber door to main block and timber battened to south block. Outbuilding to yard has pitched slate roof, unpainted rendered rubble limestone walls and square-headed openings. Cut limestone elliptical carriage arch to yard entrance from road, with bellcote and cast-iron weathervane and blocked pointed arch opening also in road boundary, for balance. Summerhouse to north-east has pyramidal slate roof, unpainted rendered walls, and pointed arch openings with traceried timber sash windows. Rubble limestone boundary walls with dressed limestone piers with carved caps and decorative cast-iron gates to front entrance.

This building has succeeded in retaining its pleasing form and massing despite the replacement of some of its distinctive features. Visible from the road, it makes a valuable contribution to the architectural heritage of the area. Its bellcote and summerhouse are testament to its demesne character. It forms an interesting group with the demesne wall, arched entrance, old gates, and summerhouse, and is part of a notably complete group of demesne architecture in the area.
