Description
This house dates to approximately 1700, with a later 20th-century extension. The ground floor is built of red and blue brick, while the first floor is tile hung, topped with a plain tiled roof. It is two storeys high, with a garret and a stack at the left end, and a half-hip roof to the right. The first floor has two three-light wooden casement windows, and the ground floor has three similar windows, plus a central two-light casement window on the first floor. A boarded door with a sidelight sits within a gabled, half-timbered porch at the left end. A tile-hung, flat-roofed extension is located at the rear. The building is included on the list for its group value.
