Description
The Laurels and the adjoining outbuilding to the left are a farmhouse and outbuilding built in 1777, with some later minor alterations. The structure is made of brown brick laid in Flemish bond and features pantile roofs. The house has a double-depth plan with a central entrance hall and a south-facing front that has two rooms. It is two storeys high with three symmetrical bays and a gable end facing the street.
The entrance features a 20th-century door set in the original frame, which includes a plain overlight and a doorcase with pilasters supporting an entablature that has a modillioned cornice and hood. The windows are 19th-century four-pane sashes within original wooden architraves, complete with sills and stucco flat arches above. There is a painted dummy window on the first floor. The eaves cornice is stepped and dentilled, and the gable ends are brick-coped with shaped stone kneelers. The end stacks are present, and the gable ends feature tie bars marked with "T" on the right and "7" on the left, originally reading "T B" and "1777".
The single-storey outbuilding, which is attached at a right angle to the left, has a pair of board doors and a sliding sash window with glazing bars, both beneath rubbed-brick flat arches. There is also a round-headed board door to the right. The raised gables have tumbled-in brickwork. Inside the house, there are chamfered spine beams, two-fielded-panel doors in architraves, a single-flight staircase, and plaster on the first floors.
