"SI DenfordPark. Kintburv. Berkshire n The rusticated stone is a white and tightly grained stone, either Portland or similar, but the imposts of the arches, the panels beneath the windows, and the plain entablature above are of the yellower Bath stone. There are rather uncomfortable junctions at either end of the composition where it meets the return walls flanking the recess. This is partly because the plinth of those walls is slightly lower than the plinth of the entrance composition, and the entablature ends abruptly at each end. More significantly, the end sections of rustication are much attenuated and do not bond into the masonry of the flanking walls. On the left-hand (east) side the junction is partly obscured by a down-pipe. On the right-hand side there is a fragment at the foot of the junction of a narrow angled slip of stone that once continued up to the ceiling to 'soften' the junction. Both of the hopper heads of the down-pipes in the angles between the central and projecting sections of the main elevation have the Cherry family's demi-lion crest and the date 1832, -, P1.9: One of the several 1832 hopper heads with the Cherry crest. This particular one was re-set on one of the later college buildings. The double doors are of three verged panels and set under a semi-circular fanlight which matches the heads of the slightly smaller windows to each side. The windows have large panes and thin astragals. Above the roof, there is a single window in the recessed centre, a thin-barred sash three panes wide and high, in a simple stone frame. This is the standard design of the original first-floor windows on both main elevations. To either side of the recessed section there are single bays which have very tall sashes, with sills only just above ground level, on the ground floor and much shorter ones at first-floor level above them. To the outwards side of both of the upper windows a narrower sash has been inserted. -21- Richard K Morriss & Associates, Historic Buildings Consultants, Bromlow House, Bromlaw, Shropshire, SYS OEA
