Description

New Houses are two houses built in the mid-18th century. They are constructed from hammer-dressed watershot stone and feature a slate and 20th-century tile roof. The buildings form an L-shaped range with two storeys and a two-storey wing to the west. The eaves have a dentilled cornice, and the east range of the L has raised tooled quoins. A lean-to porch obscures a central door that has a dressed surround and a keystone lintel. There is an enlarged window to the right on the ground floor, while the first floor features two Venetian windows with tooled lintels. To the right, there is a lean-to 20th-century garage and a blocked taking-in door at the rear. A gable chimney stack is present. The south range consists of two bays and includes a door with an architrave surround and cornice, two 4-light recessed cavetto-moulded mullion windows, and a 2-light recessed cavetto-moulded mullion window, along with a Venetian window in the gable. The west range has a projecting plinth, quoins, and features a 3-light and a 6-light window on each floor, similar to those in the south range.
