Burrowlee House is a Georgian style building. It is the oldest building in the Owlerton and Hillsborough area and was one of the first houses constructed wholly from brick in Sheffield. The house is a grade two listed building with two storeys and five bays with a stone balustrade over the three middle bays, there is a date stone over the main door. A cottage existed on the site in the 16th century and is recorded in the deeds from that period but the Burrowlee House we see today was constructed in 1711 by Thomas Steade (1672–1739).
