Description

No 4 Church Lane is a house built in the late 18th century as part of a semi-detached pair. It features a chequered red brick front that is supported by a timber frame and has a plain tile roof. The building is two storeys high and has three camber-headed windows, which now have recent leaded casements. The two central doors have been altered to narrow windows. The gable ends are marked by identical external oven-chimney stacks that have sloping tiled offsets, along with square tiled oven bays located at the front corners.
