Description
This is a mid-18th century house, with alterations made in the early 19th century and minor later changes to the rear. It is constructed of red brick with a stone plinth, flush quoins, and painted stone dressings. The roof is steeply pitched with plain tiles, featuring brick gable stacks and stone coped gables on brick kneelers, topped with a moulded stone cornice. The house has two storeys plus garrets and two bays. The central doorcase contains a 20th-century flush door and plain overlight, set below a wedge lintel with a slightly arched bottom edge to either side of a raised keyblock. Plain sash windows are positioned below similar lintels on either side, and two more similar windows are situated above.
