Description
This is a house, formerly a shop, dating to the late 18th century, with a rear wing of earlier origin. It is arranged in an L-shaped plan. The front elevation is of colourwashed brick with a pantile roof, and has three bays and two storeys. The first floor has three sash windows with glazing bars. The ground floor has a renewed sash window in the third bay, and blocked shop windows to the left and right. A renewed six-panelled door sits in the centre bay, above a semi-circular fanlight with glazing bars. A vehicular archway is present in the first bay, with a wall of flint and an oak bressumer to the rear of the archway. The left and right gables are of coursed flint with some brick, and feature internal end stacks, with the stack to the left starting above the archway. The date '178-' is inscribed in brick on the right gable.
The older rear wing has two bays, two storeys, and an attic, and is constructed of rendered flint with a steep hipped pantile roof. An axial stack abuts the rear of the front range. The north facade has two two-light casements to the ground and first floor, those to the ground floor right and first floor right with glazing bars. The south facade has a lean-to in flint and brick under pantiles, with a glazed lean-to in the angle of the wing. It also features a three-light casement window to the ground and first floor, a raking roof dormer, and a large bay window to the west return. A sash window with four-by-four glazing bars over an arch is located at the rear of the first bay.
Internally, a small opening with fixed leaded lights is now internal at the rear of the front range. A large stack is found in the rear wing, abutting the front range. The roof structure includes a three-tier butt purlin roof with collars, constructed of pine, and incorporates some reused ships spars.
