This Grade II Listed building was built in the early part of the 19th century and, along with the nearby Manor House, was described in the 'Earsdon Village Conservation Area Character Appraisal' (North Tyneside Council May 2011), "whose impressive scale sees them standing proud amongst more modest-scale properties". Particularly prominent to the passer-by is the central 6-panelled door in a Tuscan porch. It is indeed a very grand house.
