Description


House attached in pair. Mid-C19.

MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar with a slate roof.

The bay to the right is an addition to the original range; at the junction there is a wide plank door, and to the right a small single and a two-light casement. Beyond the plain, coped-gabled right-hand end is a garage with pantiled roof. There are three ashlar stacks, one at each end and one at the junction between parts. Gables are coped and on kneelers. The rear has three widely spaced twelve-pane windows at each level, with one two-panel door with arched heads.
