Description

The Cedars is a house dating from the 17th century, with 19th-century alterations. It features colour washed rough cast over a timber frame and has an old clay tile roof with a diamond pattern on the east side and a zigzag pattern on the south side. The building has an L-shaped plan, with both parallel and projecting wings made of colour washed brick at the rear. The north block is two storeys high, while the south block has two storeys and attics.

The front elevation includes a projecting gable that has one casement window on each floor, with alternating rows of plain and fishscale tiles on the gable, along with bargeboards and a drop finial at the eaves. The main block's ground floor features a central six-panel door within a moulded surround, set in a 20th-century gabled porch, flanked by French windows. The first floor has three two-light casement windows. A central red brick chimney stack has paired diagonal flues and blind arcading at its base. All windows on the east and south elevations are 19th-century lattice lights.
