The Dutch House

The Dutch House is a house that likely has a core dating from the late 17th century, with a refronting that occurred in the mid-18th century. It has undergone alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond on the front facing Church Street, and it features pantile roofs. It stands two storeys high with attics and has three bays on the Church Street side, with the entrance located in a wing to the rear right, which lines up with Wharf Street.

The front of the house has an infilled central doorway that now features a projecting stone sill beneath a plain sash window, which is set under a cambered brick arch. The outer bays also have similar sash windows beneath rubbed-brick flat arches. On the first floor, there is a band beneath the windows that mirrors the ground floor. The building has moulded lead rainwater hoppers leading to a brick parapet with nosed copings, two later roof dormers, and brick end stacks. The right return, which faces Wharf Street, displays brick floor bands and a shaped gable on the left.
