Description

Dated 1654, as indicated on the front, 16 and 18 Grantchester Road are timber-framed and plastered buildings. They are two storeys high with a tiled roof and have modern windows. A chimney stack is situated at the rear, featuring a group of diagonal shafts. The exterior underwent a complete remodelling in 1969, resulting in a significantly altered appearance from its original design. The buildings are set within a group that includes numbers 10, 12, 16 to 22 (even).
