Description
The Post Office is a pair of cottages with an attached Post Office, dating from the 17th to 18th century, with 19th-century single-storey shop and outbuilding extensions on the left. The building is timber framed and plastered, featuring a red plain tiled half hipped gambrel roof and a rear red brick chimney stack. It has two storeys and attics in the main range, with a three-window arrangement of small paned vertically sliding sashes set in moulded surrounds. The doors on the right and left, dating from the 18th to 19th century, are made up of two moulded vertical panels in moulded surrounds, topped with plain pediments. The single-storey extensions on the left are weatherboarded, with various roofs of red tiles or corrugated iron. There are double vertically boarded doors to the left, a small paned central shop window, and a right shop door that matches the cottage doors.
