Description
Sleepy Hollow is a house dating from the 17th century, with an 18th-century encasement. It has a timber-frame core that is encased in brick, topped with a plain tile roof. The house is oriented towards the road and consists of three bays, with one and a half storeys, and lower service bays at one end. There is a 20th-century door located under an open hipped porch between the road and the central bays. Each bay features a three-light casement window beneath a cambered head, and there is also a three-light casement window in a hipped dormer. A stack is situated on the ridge between the central and four bays.
