The Salt Box

The Salt Box is a house dating from the 17th century, with a front range extension added in 1878. It is constructed of rubble stone with brick dressings at the front, and features applied timber with rendered infill above, along with tile hanging at the rear. The building has parallel slate roofs, with a stack at the front left and a ridge stack to the right of the center. There is a large 17th-century diagonal five-stack chimney at the center of the rear roof. The house is two storeys high, with the first floor jettied on brackets. It has four late 19th-century diamond-pane casement windows across the first floor, and a ground floor casement window to the right that projects in a square bay on brackets. The entrance features a planked door within a boarded and trellis porch at the center, and there is a pent roof tile-hung extension set back to the left end that contains another door.
