Description

The building consists of a house and attached cottages, now unoccupied, dating from the mid-18th century with some early 19th-century alterations. The ground floor is made of hammer-dressed stone, while the first floor features orange/red brick in a random bond, topped with a stone slate roof. There are two parallel ranges, with the southern range being longer. The structure is two storeys high.

The northern range of cottages has four bays, with ashlar quoins. The outer bays contain doorways with deep lintels, while the central bays have windows on each floor with projecting sills. The ground floor windows have deep lintels, and the first-floor windows feature small-paned Yorkshire sashes with wooden lintels. A central brick ridge stack is present.

The house, which is set back and extends to the right, also has ashlar quoins. It features a doorway with a monolithic lintel to the left of a window with a small-paned Yorkshire sash, and another window above that is partly obscured by the northern cottages, suggesting that the house predates the cottages. The gable is coped with shaped kneelers, and there are two stacks on either side of the ridge.

On the rear, the ground floor has two doorways with three four-pane sash windows in between, all with lintels that have false voussoirs in render. The first floor has a large 18-pane window that once lit a tailor's workshop. To the right, there are two windows with projecting sills, and the gables are coped with a stack set below the ridge.

Inside, heavy stop-chamfered spine beams are supported by dressed stone columns, indicating that the building may have originally been timber-framed. One post on a padstone remains. The building was formerly the workshop of Denton and Son, tailors and livery-outfitters, known for making the livery for the staff at Chevet Hall, which has since been demolished.
