Description

Two houses, likely built around 1863 by Teulon. They are constructed of roughly-squared sandstone with ashlar and yellow brick dressings, quoins, and roofs of mixed blue and green slates. The houses are two storeys, five bays wide, with a one-storey, one-bay extension set back on the left. A partly-glazed door is located in the second bay, set beneath a segmental brick arch and flat stone lintel. Other ground-floor windows have wide segmental brick arches, one being a three-light window, and another with glazing bars and a central wood mullion. The first floor has three narrower windows with matching segmental heads, all with brick jambs. The long front gable over the first bay contains two small lancet windows in the peak. Smaller gables are positioned over two other windows. The set-back extension features a wide stone lintel above a 20th-century window. Brick quoins mark the corners. The roof is steeply pitched, half-hipped over the extension, with chimneys at the ridge in the second bay and at the front, diagonally-set with a central shaft between two smaller gables.
