GV II
Probable former staging post,now used as house & office.
Probably 1836, refenestrated circa 1988. Roughcast; gabled
slate roof; end stacks with brick shafts and old pots.
Plan: Double depth plan, 2 rooms wide,with central
carriageway.
Exterior: 3 storeys and cellar. Originally symmetrical 4-bay
front. Central carriagway and flanking doors treated as one
composition. Segmental-headed archway to centre with a moulded
arch carried on brackets with slender engaged shafts with
capitals below and small carved heads (probably secondary) on
the jambs. Pair of ledged and braced boarded carriageway doors
with segmental arched heads. Above the archway a fascia and
moulded cornice, which breaks forward over the flanking
doorcases. These originally had pilasters with sunk panels,
moulded consoles and an entablature; guilloche frieze over the
lintels; reveals panelled with roundels; doors also with
roundel panels; right hand doorway and door somewhat altered.
Ground floor window right is a C20 plate glass shop window
with small panes above the transom. All the other windows: one
to ground floor left and 4 first and 4 second floor are,
unfortunately, top-hung plastic windows. These are in the
original embrasures and the number of panes is the same as the
original early C19 timber sashes that were replaced: 16-pane
to the ground and first floor; 4/8-pane to the second floor.
Interior: Only partially inspected: original features seen
include panelled doors and an early C19 plaster cornice and
other features of interest may survive.
Extensive stabling and coach-houses existed to the rear but
were demolished when Newcombes meadow, to the rear, was made
into a municipal park. Union Road was cut through in 1836.
