Description

This is a house, dated 1830 as shown above the door. It is constructed from squared and coursed limestone with a gabled stone slate roof. The house has a two-unit plan, arranged over two storeys, and features a two-window front. A stone bracketed flat hood shelters the 20th-century front door. Late 19th or 20th-century two-light casement windows are set within segmental stone arches. A two-storey service range, built of similar materials and with a brick end stack, extends to the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
