Newlawn House

Detached five-bay three-storey house over basement, built c.1770, having shallow three-storey return to rear. Pitched slate roof with flat corrugated-iron roof to return. Limestone eaves course and rendered brick gable-end chimneystacks. Lime render to walls, with slate hanging showing in west gable and limestone eaves course. Timber sliding sash windows, four-over-four pane to ground floor, six-over-six pane to first floor, three-over-three pane to second floor and various to rear, all with stone sills, one round-headed and one blocked window to return. Basement windows boarded up. Replacement front door having plain overlight and approached by limestone steps. Lean-to shed supported on timber posts attached to east gable. Two single-storey stone outbuildings to north and northwest.

A classically-proportioned house retaining all important external features such as slate roof, lime render and small-pane timber sash windows which ensure the original character of the building is maintained. The regularly-spaced fenestration of the front façade contrasts with the irregularly-sized and spaced windows to the rear. Many interior features are also retained. Not obscured by any planting, this house forms a landmark in the surrounding farmland.
