garage beyond. 2 storeys. On ground floor, one C20 reproduction sash of 16
lights, 6-panel door with moulded architrave and cornice, C18, and C20 plate
glass display windows. On first floor, 3 early C20 sashes. The original walls
are approx. 3 metres high, raised by approx. 1.5 metres in C17. The interior
