Description
This is a house, likely dating from the 17th century, with later alterations. It is timber-framed and rendered, with a red brick stack and a plain tile roof. The building has a three-cell plan and two storeys. A single-storey projection, with a pent roof, has been added to the left of the front, containing a door and shop window. A further plank door adjoins this. Windows are 20th-century three-light casements, with a single leaded light on the first floor against the stack. The roof is steeply pitched and swept, with a stack positioned off-centre. The ends of wall plates and collar are visible on the left gable wall. The interior has not been inspected.
