Description
Candycroft and Vendor are a pair of attached houses built in the early to mid-19th century, with few later alterations. They are constructed of rendered stone rubble and feature a slurried slate roof with ridge tiles and gable ends. The right gable end has a stack with a rubble shaft, while other stacks have been removed.
The layout consists of Candycroft on the left, which has a two-room plan with a central entrance; it likely originally had a gable end stack on the left. Vendor is on the right, with a one-room plan that is heated by a gable end stack to the right, and it includes a one-room plan addition to the right, also heated from a gable end stack.
The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical three-window front. The first floor features 19th-century 16-pane sash windows. The ground floor has a six-panelled door leading to Candycroft, with similar 16-pane sashes on either side. Vendor has a six-panelled door with a 19th-century 16-pane sash to the right. There is a lower two-storey addition to the right, slightly set back, which has a 19th-century 12-pane sash on both the ground and first floors. The right end wall is blind and has an external stack. The rear and interior of the houses are not accessible.
