Description
This is a group of three houses, originally known as Westholm, dating back to the 18th century with a significant extension in the early 19th century. The property features a core 18th-century structure, with a substantial early 19th-century addition to the right side and rear. It is constructed of Suffolk brick, painted and featuring a band and plinth. The roof is slate-covered with wide eaves. A six-panel door provides access to the garden, located on the side of the building, and is flanked by fluted wood Greek Doric pilasters. Modern posts now support the porch, entablature, and panelled soffit, replacing original columns. There are four casement windows with stone cills and flat arches. Two French windows are located on the ground floor. The road frontage and earlier 18th-century section have a plain appearance. A wrought iron lamp holder is arched over the entrance gate piers, and a six-panel door provides garden access from the front entrance.
