Description
This is a range of four timber-framed and plastered houses with origins in the 17th century, but featuring 18th and 19th century external details. The houses are two storeys high and have a seven-window frontage of 19th-century two-light casement windows, each with Gothic arched top panes. There are four boarded doors, each with a gabled porch featuring shaped bargeboards. A decorative plaster band runs across the front of the building, between the ground and first floors. The roofs are tiled, with two central chimney stacks.
