Description
This is a 17th-century house with 19th-century additions to the right. The house is constructed of brick and flint, with a pantile roof. It originally comprised two cells with a lobby entrance. The house is two storeys and has an attic. A central axial stack rises through the building. The left-hand side of the front features brickwork alongside coursed flint. A central door is flanked by two three-light casement windows on each floor, all set within segmental arches. Above the door is a blank opening containing a smaller inserted casement. The left-hand gable facing the road has brickwork above the eaves, with a single attic window, and coursed flint below, incorporating decorative zigzag brickwork. The rear elevation features coursed flint with brick dressings, a brick-capped flint plinth, a dentil cornice, and a vertical brick quoin to the left of the right-hand cell. The windows are varied and scattered. Some windows are cast iron casements with cast iron glazing bars, one of which has Gothic-headed lights. Inside, the original cells contain large fireplaces and feature large floor tiles. A 19th-century single-storey and attic extension has been added to the right-hand side, incorporating a large conservatory to the front. A large relieving arch is positioned above the main door and windows. The east gable end has a stack, and there is one raking dormer window.
