Description
This is a house dating to circa 1740. It is constructed of brick and has a thatched roof. The house is one storey with a dormer attic, set on a plinth course. A central 19th-century door is situated behind a 20th-century thatched porch, with a 20th-century casement window to the left and right, both set under segmental arches. Corner pilasters rise to a moulded brick eaves cornice. The gabled roof has two through-eaves dormers with eyebrow thatching. An internal south gable end stack is present. The south gable head has a platband at the eaves line.
