Description
This is a 17th-century house located on Green End Road, in the rural area of Kempston. The house has been altered in the 20th century.

There are three casement windows on the first floor, with glazing bars. Two ground-floor casement windows retain glazing bars, and a 20th-century porch is located on the left-hand side. A single-storey, flat-roofed extension, also from the 20th century, is attached to the right-hand side.
