Description

The Cedars is a house built around 1840, constructed of brick that is now painted. It features a hipped slate roof with internal and side stacks. The building has a double pile design and is double fronted, with a three-window range of recessed twelve-pane hung sashes that are currently shuttered. The central doorway is set within an original porch supported by slender Doric columns, and it has a panelled rectangular fanlight with glazing bars. This property is included for its group value.
