Description

Number 1 and the adjoining houses in Butts Head, The Butts, are early 19th-century coachhouses and residences that have been converted into three houses facing Market Place and three more in the left return to The Butts. They are built from coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings and quoins, topped with a stone-flagged roof and ashlar chimneys. The building is arranged in an L-plan and consists of three storeys, except for the two-storey house on the right and a lower two-storey wing on the left.

The Market Place elevation features seven bays, while the left return has six bays, with irregular fenestration throughout. The flat stone lintels above the boarded door and a four-pane overlight are found in the second bay, while glazed doors appear in the fourth and seventh bays. The windows include sashes with glazing bars and late 19th-century sashes, with the second and third bays raised from a catslide and featuring 20th-century windows. A canted bay window with a hipped roof is located in the fifth bay. The two-storey left wing has a pent roof, while the raised part has a flat roof, and the other roofs are low-pitched with chimneys at the right end of each house. The left return includes a central segmental-arched coach entrance, and the left house projects forward with a doorcase featuring pilasters and an entablature above a panelled door and a two-pane overlight in the inner return.
