| House, now hotel and restaurant. Early to mid C19. Probably by Websters of Kendal. Limestone ashlar with side and rear walls of painted rubble. Slate roof. Double-depth plan. 2 storeys and 4 bays. Windows are glazing bar sashes with plain reveals, projecting sills on the ground floor, and a 1st-floor sill band. The door, in the 2nd bay, is of 6 raised and fielded panels and has an overlight of 3 panes. The limestone doorcase is of baseless Tuscan engaged columns with a triangular pediment. Gable chimneys. Attached to the wall of a rear extension is a lead plaque inscribed 'I G H 1812', which appears to have been removed from the cistern of a water pump. | ||
| INTERIOR: the mahogany dogleg stair has stick balusters and a wreathed handrail. The left-hand front room contains a marble fireplace surround with moulded sunken panels and with anthemion brackets. The right-hand front room has a plainer marble fireplace, and a built-in cupboard (which appears to be mostly original) in the wall which divides it from the rear room. On the first floor there are fireplace surrounds of polished limestone, the left-hand front room having one with a cast-iron Gothick grate, and the right-hand one having a hob grate. | ||
