The Dutch House

The Dutch House is an L-shaped building from the late 17th century, standing two storeys tall with two windows facing the street. The brick exterior is painted white and consists of five bays separated by four brick pilasters, with a stringcourse above the ground floor. The ground floor originally featured arcading with keystones over the arches in each bay, though this is now only intact in the outer bays. The south bay contains the original nine-panel door. On the first floor, the outer and central bays display panels of ornamental brickwork, while 18th-century sash windows with intact glazing bars have been inserted in the intervening bays. Below these are two modern windows that do not match the character of the building. Centrally located on the ground floor is an 18th-century doorway with fluted wooden pilasters, a pediment, and a six-panel fielded door. The west wing at the back features a shaped Dutch gable. The Dutch House is part of a group with Nos 60 to 68 (even) King Street.
