Description
This is a house dating to the 17th century, and possibly incorporating earlier fabric. It is constructed of colourwashed limestone rubble with wooden lintels, and has a thatched roof with a brick ridge stack. The building follows a two-unit through-passage plan, with a rear outshut. The two-storey front has three bays, with the right-hand bay breaking forward. This bay contains an ancient plank door, positioned below a two-light casement window. The other bays include three old three-light casement windows, and a wide four-light window, which may have been altered from a shop window or cart entry. A small two-light dormer window is located at the rear. Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace backing onto the passage.
