The Fosse is a distinctive house located near the remains of the castle moat (now called Castle Pool) and the site of the medieval castle (now Castle Green) in Hereford. The building style is closest to an amalgam that is often called "Jacobethan", a nineteenth century revivalist style incorporating elements of Jacobean and Elizabethan architecture. Interestingly, I read that the listing attribution to the architect Robert Smirke is erroneous. Apparently it is the work of Thomas Nicholson and it was built in 1848-50, not 1825 as is carved on a plaque below the front chimney stacks. The sunlit house below a dark sky prompted my photograph.
