What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey steward's house, built c.1820, with extension to rear. Now a private dwelling. Set back from road. Hipped slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, rendered chimneystacks and timber eaves brackets. Smooth render to plinth with roughcast render to walls. Replacement uPVC windows with tooled stone sills. Round-headed door opening with tooled block-and-start surround, petal fanlight and timber battened door. Split-level stone outbuilding with pitched slate roof and stone corrugated-iron outbuilding to east. Rendered wall with wrought-iron gate to front site.
Although altered, this well proportioned modestly designed house is enhanced by its tooled stone door surround. The split-level outbuilding to the east is a noteworthy feature. This structure originally belonged to a larger group of structures associated with the now demolished Mount Lucas House.
