Architectural heritage

• Woodstock House, country house, 1760–1780 · Regional interest
  Description

  Detached five-bay three-storey over basement former country house, built in 1770, now in use as a hotel / country club. The original house was probably to designs by Robert West the eminent Irish stuccodore. Two-storey wing additions added in c.1830 to designs by Sir Richard Morrison. There are later additions to the rear elevation. The walls are finished in painted lined render. A short flight of stone steps rises to the front door; it has a four-pane fanlight and is flat-headed. This is set within a projecting portico with Ionic columns. Window openings are flat-headed and have moulded surrounds; those to the piano nobile also have blocking courses and projecting cornice. The hipped roof is finished with natural slate and cast-iron rainwater goods. Chimneystacks are rendered with plain caps and clay pots. Much of the late Georgian interior has been retained; this includes rococo plaster work to the hallway, the original stair and fireplaces to principal rooms. The building is set within a large demesne which is now in use as a golf course.

• Woodstock House, gate lodge, 1840–1860 · Regional interest
  Description

  Detached three-bay single-storey former gate lodge to Woodstock House, built c.1850, now in use as a house. The building is finished in render. To the east rear there is a recent lean-to conservatory. To the north there is a single-storey canted bay with a hipped roof. The sheeted front door is set within a segmental-arched opening. This in turn is set within a broken-based pedimented projecting bay. Window openings are also segmental-arched and have timber casement frames with margins. The hipped roof is finished with natural slate and cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set beside the replacement gate screen.
