Place & story

Sashes and a fanlight

A four-bay house in Stonehall is dated to about 1810 by the architectural inventory. Its entrance combines fluted Doric pilasters with a radial fanlight, while the sash windows have different glazing patterns on the two floors. The survey recorded lime render on the walls and a hipped slate roof above. The house faces east towards a gravel forecourt, with outbuildings behind it to the west and north-west. [2]
