Description

The Brothers House is likely a late medieval timber-framed building that has been refaced with red brick on the ground floor and weatherboarding above. It features a steeply-pitched hipped tiled roof. The house has two doorcases with a joint flat hood over them, and each door consists of six fielded panels. The building stands two storeys high and has three windows.
