Description

Number 52 on King Street is a 17th-century building that is currently faced with stucco. Originally, it was a two-storey structure, but the upper floor has been removed. The building has a tiled roof and features three windows, with the left window being a double-hung curved sash. The entrance has a simple wooden doorcase with a moulded architrave and a nine-panelled door. At the rear, there are two later dormers. Inside, the two rooms are divided and both have early 17th-century plaster ceilings.
