Description
5 and 7 Kings Lane are two dwellings, likely built in the early 17th century, with 20th-century alterations. The building has a rendered plinth and lined render, presumably on brick to the ground floor, with further lined render likely on timber framing to the first floor. The roof is covered in old plain tiles and has truncated brick end stacks. It is a two-story building with a two-window front. Two 20th-century sash doors are centrally placed. The ground and first floors each have two 20th-century two-light casements on the left and right sides. The interiors have not been inspected.
