deep, and short rear wing at right rear; rear wing extended
and angle between wing and front range infilled.
EXTERIOR: 3-storey 3-window front. Shopfront of reeded
pilasters and cornice with glazed door recessed between
half-canted plate glass windows. 12-pane sash windows on first
floor; two windows only on second floor, 16-pane sash to right

and painted stone sills. 3-course raised band to second floor.
At right end of parapet, inverted bell shaped rainwater head

storeys and attic.
INTERIOR: part of early C18 front staircase survives on ground

staircase survives. In first floor front room, cross beam and
two spine beams are exposed; original floor joists, underdrawn
in front room, are visible beyond C20 partition. Part of
original studded rear wall visible on landing. In rear

wall at rear of larger room, corner posts with jowled heads
are visible, and blocked 2-light window. Spine beams are
exposed in both rooms, and smaller room has exposed ceiling
joists. In larger room, fireplace with cambered brick arch

and shaped handrail is retained. Rear wing and extension
