Description
No. 15 King’s Head Street is a house dating from the late 18th century. It is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a 20th-century concrete pantiled gabled roof. The building has two storeys with attics and a later two-storey rear extension. The front features two hipped dormers, each containing a two-light casement window with a single central horizontal glazing bar. On the first floor, there are two double-hung sash windows and one square double-hung sash window, all with small panes. The ground floor has a flush double-hung sash window with small panes on either side of a central doorcase, which has an eaved architrave with a pulvinated frieze, flat cornice, and hood. The 20th-century replica door consists of six raised-and-fielded panels. Inside, the house has softwood spine beams on each floor, two rear wall stacks, late 18th-century door architraves, and one cupboard door with L-hinges.
