Description
No. 24 North Entrance is a building that originally consisted of two houses from the early 18th century, which were converted into a single dwelling in 1930. The structure is timber-framed, plastered, and colourwashed, topped with pantile roofs and features brick stacks, with one located externally at the right gable and a ridge stack on the left part.
The exterior is two-storeys high. The right part has two plank doors, flanked by one 2-light and one 3-light late 18th-century metal casement window on the ground floor, with two similar windows on the first floor. The left part follows a lobby-entrance plan, featuring a plank door and a 3-light 18th-century casement window to the right, along with one small light on each floor to the right. The roof includes a flat-topped dormer fitted with an 18th-century 3-light metal casement.
Inside, the timber frame is extensively visible, with stud partition walls and chamfered bridging beams that have tongue stops. There is a winder stair located at the rear of the south stack.
