Description
This is a house, likely dating from the mid-17th century, with alterations and an encasement from the 18th century. The exterior is of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, featuring random flared headers. The roof is covered in old plain tiles and is half-hipped on the left side, with a central ridge stack and an end stack to the right. The house is single-storied with an attic, and has a three-window facade set at an angle to the road. A 20th-century ribbed door is housed within a 20th-century porch in the centre. To the left is a French window with a segmental brick head, and to the right, two further French windows also with segmental brick heads. Two hipped half-dormers are visible, each containing a three-light mullion and transom window. The rear elevation displays timber framing with brick infill. The interior has not been inspected.
