Description
No. 30 Ermine Street is a house dating from the 17th century, with its roof raised in the 19th century. The building features an exposed and plastered timber frame with red brick nogging and has a slate roof. It is two storeys high and follows a three-unit lobby entry plan. There is an end stack on the left side and a red brick ridge stack. The front has one sixteen-paned hung sash window that is flush-framed, along with two early 20th-century brick bay windows, each with four-paned hung sashes. The main entrance has a half-glazed door. On the first floor, there are three casement windows. At the rear, there is a wing and barn that are weatherboarded, with a red brick plinth and a roof that combines slate, thatch, and pantiles, positioned at an angle beside the boundary that follows the ancient strips of the open fields.
