Details Estate house, and ancillary buildings, of Fasque estate, depicted on the 1st and 2nd edition OS maps and still in use. It is a well-detailed 2-storey and attic, 3-bay, gabled and finialled house dating to the mid-late 19th century, with a later (circa 1900) single storey piended estate office wing and single storey with attic pavilion roofed wing, both to the rear. It is constructed of coursed and squared narrow red sandstone blocks with some snecking and contrasting stugged sandstone quoins and margins. Much of the fine interior detail is retained, including moulded plasterwork cornices, architraved timber doors, panelled timber reveals and shutters, brass sash lifts, cast iron radiators, vertically panelled timbre dadoes and many good timbre fire surrounds with decorative cast iron grates. There is also an encaustic-tiled porch floor leading to a panelled screen door with coloured leaded glazing and fanlights. Photographic recording was carried out in 2020 ahead of proposed conversion.
