Description

The Old Laundry is a house, dating to circa 1700, with later 20th-century alterations. It is of framed construction, with a roughcast front elevation and a peg-tile roof, featuring a brick stack.

The house is west-facing, with a main block of single-depth, two rooms wide, and a larger, heated room to the rear. An outshut is located to the rear, and there is a single-storey addition at the right end. The building was used as a laundry in the 1920s and 1930s, with the front single-storey addition serving as the ironing room.

The main block has a symmetrical three-bay front and a deep mansard roof. A disused 19th-century front door is centrally positioned, flanked by 19th-century three-light small-pane casement windows. Two similar first-floor windows are also present. The two left-hand ground floor windows have top-hung panes, likely for ventilation related to the former laundry use. A flat-roofed attic dormer contains a small-pane 19th-century casement. The single-storey addition at the right end has a 20th-century front door to the left and garage doors to the right.

The interior has been modernised, with the original partition between the two rooms removed.
