Two houses combined to form one house and garage. Late medieval and C18, altered in C19 and 1986. Timber framed and weatherboarded, roofed with handmade red plain tiles. The W house comprises a late medieval range of 4 bays with gable end to the street, internal stack at left, 2 storeys. The E house comprises an C18 shorter parallel range, 3 storeys. The left range has one C20 fixed window of 8 lights on the ground floor, and one C20 sash of 16 lights in early C19 style on the first floor; small gable and short connecting roof to the house to the left, no. 2 West Street. The right house has a garage door of almost full width, on the first floor a sash similar to the first, and on the second floor, a C20 casement; roof hipped to front and back; the rear elevation and the left return of the second storey are weatherboarded, the remainder plastered. The left house has an underbuilt jetty at the front. Internal studding has been removed, but mortices and wattle grooves indicate that originally there was a through-passage on the left of a small enclosed area to right front, probably a shop. Plain joists of horizontal section arranged longitudinally in front bays, transversely in rear bays. C18 hearth with rounded back, 0.23 metre jambs and unchamfered mantel beam, to rear of large enclosure representing the external stack of no. 2 West Street. Early C19 3-flight stair with turned newels, moulded handrail, and introduced turned balusters (the last installed 1986/7). Roof rebuilt in C18/19. Introduced internal doors. One door with re-used C19 linenfold panelling. The ground floor of the right range comprises a full-length garage, fully plastered internally. Other introduced features. Original roof with dragon ties supporting the hip rafters. RCHM 59.
