Goodburn House
Goodburn House, also known as 47 Newbiggin, is a historic building in Richmond, North Yorkshire, a town in England.
The house was constructed in the 18th century, in the Gothick style.[1] Richmondshire District Council note it has "strong architectural themes", but "is brought back to a vernacular interpretation",[2] while Nikolaus Pevsner describes it as "delightful" and notes "it may well be some people's favourite house in Richmond".[3] The building was grade II* listed in 1952.[1]
The house is built of stone, with chamfered quoins, a moulded eaves cornice, and a pantile roof. It has two storeys and five bays, the outer bays slightly recessed, and the central bay projecting under a pediment. The central doorway has a moulded surround with nail head ornament, and above it is a round-headed window with Gothic glazing and a hood mould. Flanking the doorway are canted bay windows with Gothic glazing, clustered column mullions, and shaped roofs, and above them are windows with a pointed head and a hood mould. The windows in the outer bays are flat-headed sashes, and in the right bay is a plain doorway. The bay windows have rib vaulting inside.[1][3]
