Description
These are two houses, likely built in the early 18th century, with a later 18th-century facade. The walls are likely limestone rubble, covered with pebbledash render, and the roof is covered with plain tiles. There are brick chimney stacks at the ends. The houses have two storeys and a three-window front. In the center is a recessed area with two 19th-century doors, with glazed panels. The ground floor has tripartite sash windows on either side. The center first-floor window is a 12-pane sash, while the left and right first-floor windows are tripartite sashes. The interior has not been inspected. A single-storey extension with a hipped roof has been added to the left side.
