Description

This is a house row, originally incorporating a shop, dating from the 18th and 19th centuries. The left-hand section, known as The Cheynes, has a timber frame and is clad in weatherboard, with a plain tile roof. The right-hand section, Cheyne House, has a red brick ground floor in a Flemish bond pattern, with weatherboard above and a slate roof. The Cheynes section is two storeys high, while Cheyne House is three. The right-hand section has a hipped roof, with a gable end stack to the left, a ridge stack shared by both sections, and a projecting stack at the right end. The windows are a mix of casements: three 3-light casements and four 2-light casements to The Cheynes, alternating on each floor, and two 2-light casements with top lights to each upper floor of Cheyne House. The ground floor of The Cheynes includes two 2-light casements with shallow flat hoods to the left, a canted bay at the right end, and a central projecting rectangular bay that was formerly a shop front, with a moulded and dentilled cornice. Two doors are present in The Cheynes: one half-glazed within the shop front, and another with four fielded panels and two top lights, under a flat hood with a moulded and dentilled cornice. A panelled door is centrally located on Cheyne House. The interiors were not inspected and no historical context or alterations are detailed in the listing. The building is situated on the south side of Broad Street, Sutton Valence.
