1693. Carpenter: Abraham Smith. (So much can at least be conjectured from the words
"Abraham Smith 1693" painted on to one of the purlins). Brick, now roughcast.
Pantiled roof. Two storeys and attics. Five bays: circular windows with 4 keystones
each (one replaced by neo-Georgian bay). Heavily rusticated door with quintuple
keystone. Very large chimneybreast at west end, with set backs each marked by small
triangular or segemental pediments, presumably in moulded brick. Rear wing:
2 storeys, and one bay, with contemporary shaped gable.

Interior. Good contemporary wainscotting. Three diagonally placed fireplaces.
Staircase with fat vase-shaped balusters, closed string and scrolled console against
lower newel (cf No 14 High St Agnesgate). Two contemporary paintings set into the
wainscotting in overmantels of 2 first floor rooms. One shows a rural scene in the
foreground of which is a signpost, apparently bearing the initials:
