Description

This is a short row of two houses, known as School House (No.1) and Newcott. The building's core dates back to the 16th century, with significant alterations and additions in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th centuries. It began as a timber-frame house, which was later extended at each end and reclad.

The north-facing front, which is two stories high with four windows, displays a mix of wall materials and construction techniques. The front wall is largely 18th century, constructed with Flemish bond brickwork, featuring blue headers in the lower portion and cambered arches. A brick plinth sits on a flint base. The west side of the building reveals a late 17th-century flint wall with red brick dressings and cambered arches. The upper wall, dating to the early 19th century, is made of English bond brickwork rising from the window sills to the heads. Casement windows are present, along with ½-glazed doors.

The rear elevation includes two dormers and sections of exposed timber framing with plaster infill in the upper part of the middle section, with flint on the west side. Upper casement windows are also present. Ground-floor windows are partially obscured by later 19th and 20th-century outshots. The roof is hipped at the east end and gabled at the west.
