II

Large parsonage house, 1896, by T M Lockwood & Sons for 1st Duke of
Westminster. Stone-dressed red brick walls with blue diapers, on
stone plinth. Grey slate roof, hipped to right (west) but with
sandstone-coped gables, left, and to garden, south, with ball finials
on ridge-stones and kneelers. Central stone-banded brick chimney with
moulded stone cap. 2 storeys and attics, 3 bays. Stone mullioned and
transomed windows with bronze casements: leaded glazing removed except
to attic windows. Ornate 9-panel oak double doors in simplified Doric
case of yellow sandstone (probably from Manley quarry).
A rich interior. Open-well newel staircase with heavy turned

ornate chimney piece, probably by Lockwood, oak wainscotting and
panelled ceiling of oak and plaster. The exterior, for Eaton Estate
