splayed corner surmounted by a cupola; with a chamfered
plinth, a channelled pilaster at the end of each facade, a
moulded cornice with cresting over the windows, and a parapet
with centre panel. The ground floor has a large round-headed
doorway in the centre, with a hollow-moulded surround

casement in the centre with a dentilled lintel to the
openings, a keystone, and a scalloped feature on the cornice
above, and sashed windows either side with prominent sills on
fluted brackets, plain surrounds with enrichment at impost

spayed corner has a round-headed doorway with prominent

keystone, and at 1st floor a semicircular
mullioned-and-transomed oriel window which has a conical base
enriched with swags, ropework enrichment to the transom, and
