Description
The Cedar is a house dating from around 1830, with some minor alterations and traces of an earlier building. It features white-washed roughcast and has a hipped roof covered with 20th-century interlocking tiles, along with rendered chimneys that have pairs of shafts. The house is double-piled and consists of two storeys with three bays across and three bays deep.
The front façade facing the road includes a prominent late 19th-century rectangular bay window on the left, which has French doors, a wooden cornice, and a flat roof. To the right is a large tripartite sash window. The first floor has three-pane sash windows. The central entrance is a 19th-century half-glazed door topped with an ornamental radiating fanlight set in a depressed arch, surrounded by a hollow-chamfered frame. The rendered doorcase features Doric columns, a simply panelled frieze, and a flat cornice.
On the right side of the house, there are three-pane sashes, with the leftmost window being blind. The central bay has double half-glazed doors with a marginally glazed fanlight above. Both the door and the sash window above it have raised surrounds with cornices and scroll brackets, with the window also featuring a bracketed sill. The irregular rear of the house has a slight projection to the right, three-pane sashes, and a six-panelled door with a rectangular fanlight set in a segmental arched recess.
