Description
A pair of houses dating from the mid-19th century. They are built of yellow brick with a slated roof and gabled ends. The houses are two storeys high, with a basement below. The architectural style is considered unremarkable, and the buildings have undergone significant alterations over time. The property is listed due to its historical association with Sir Winston Churchill, who resided there from 1945 until his death in 1965. No. 27 served as office space for his staff.
