An attractive building both in scale and choice of materials.

What a charming building this is in an early 19th century 'gothic' style. Unusual in that it is built of dressed limestone with sandstone detailing. Nice windows and a castellated roof line. Only the red tiled roof detracts from the overall effect. Once the Victoria Hospital, it is now the offices for Blenkirons funeral directors.
