Description
Nos. 13 and 14, known as 4B Micro Centres, are a house converted into offices, dating from the 18th century with later alterations. The building is constructed from regularly coursed ironstone rubble and features a slate roof. There is a renewed brick stack on a rendered base to the left and a renewed end stack to the right, along with renewed coping on the left side. The structure is single storey plus an attic and has a three-window range. The office front is made of wood and dates from the 20th century, with two 20th-century windows in the original openings and one central blocked window on the first floor. There are also two 20th-century gabled attic dormers. The interior has been remodelled in the 20th century.
