Description
No. 7 (Top Row) is a house from the late 18th century, constructed of coursed sandstone rubble and topped with a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and features two bays. The windows are tripartite, framed with plain stone surrounds and square mullions, and include glazing bars and top-opening casements. The door, located between the bays, has a plain stone surround and is topped with a moulded open pediment supported by stone blocks. Above the door is a blank niche with a plain stone surround. To the left of the left-hand bay, there is a straight joint leading to a blank wall. The house has chimneys on the gables and to the left of the left-hand bay. The left-hand gable, which faces the church, consists of one bay and contains sashed windows with glazing bars and plain stone surrounds. There is also a blocked door to the left, featuring a plain stone surround.
