Description
This is a late 17th-century house, originally divided into four cottages and later into two. The building is timber-framed and faced with colourwashed brick, topped with a plaintiled roof. It features a range of casement and fixed windows, including a small-paned bow shop window on the left-hand side. Four gabled dormers contain two-light casement windows. A 20th-century replacement entrance door is present. Some original timber framing is visible on the upper floor. The original layout of the house is unclear, and it has undergone significant alterations, including the removal of partition walls.
