Circa 1874-75. J J Stevenson architect. Designed for his brother A Stevenson. Red brick and slate roofs with parapetted gables. Two storeys with attics. A very pleasant asymmetrical design in the English domestic revival of the late C17-early C18 manner. Sash windows with segmental heads, keystones and exposed boxes. Entrance at eastern end has a flat canopy supported on scrolled brackets and over it a fanlight with architrave and pediment.

West of door a three light window. The entrance projects and terminates in a gable with a two light window. To the east of the above the elevation has three bays on the ground floor. At first floor an oriel and a canted dormer immediately above it. On the west of the main house is a single storey wing. Good elevations to the south, garden front.

The above houses in Westoe Village form the most important group of domestic buildings.
