Charles Tresise, a notable local figure, not only owned businesses but also held positions as Mayor and Alderman of Burton. His legacy is immortalized on the foundation stone of Burton Magistrates Court, proudly situated on Horninglow Street.

Upon entering through the main doorway, one is greeted by a spacious hallway adorned with an enchanting stained glass window and original Minton tile flooring, guiding the way to various ground floor spaces including a cloakroom boasting elegant features such as a low-level WC and stylish hand wash basin.

The ground floor unfolds into a series of reception rooms, starting with a dining area characterized by exposed floorboards, a bay window bathing the room in natural light, and an exquisite fireplace. Adjacent lies the lounge, boasting similar charm with exposed floorboards, a brick-backed fireplace housing a wood burning stove, and distinctive coving on the ceiling.
