Description

Horseshoes is an early 19th century house built from gault brick, featuring red brick quoins and a low-pitched slate roof with end stacks. The building has two storeys and includes three hung sash windows with glazing bars on the first floor, along with two similar ground floor windows set in segmental arches. The central entrance is a six-panelled door framed by a plain wooden architrave.
