Description

Mill House and The Curiosity Shop are two dwellings from the 18th century, standing two storeys high with attics. The ground floor is constructed of stone rubble, featuring red brick window dressings and quoins, while the upper floor is tile-hung. The building has a hipped tiled roof with two gabled dormers and a wooden eaves cornice. There are three sash windows with intact glazing bars. A modern porch has been added. At the north-east end, there is a contemporary workshop, known as The Curiosity Shop, which is one storey high and has one window, faced with weatherboarding.
