What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey double-pile house, built c.1930, with hipped slate roofed canted-bay windows to front (west), three-bay two-storey rear wing to south and recent conservatory to east. Hipped slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted roughcast rendered walls with plat bands. Square-headed window openings with one-over-one timber sliding sash windows and concrete sills. Single and paired one-over-one timber sliding sash windows to rear wing. Some replacement uPVC windows to east elevation. Square-headed door opening with timber glazed door and stained glass overlight, having smooth render surround comprising plain pilasters supporting canopy. Rendered boundary walls to front with recent timber gates.
An fine early twentieth century house, which is notable for its large scale, being double-pile with a substantial rear wing. Its scale is comparable to middle sized country houses of the nineteenth century, which is uncommon in rural areas in the first decades of the twentieth century. The attractive door, bay windows and sash windows create its character and charm.
