Description
This is a house, likely dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of whitewashed and rendered materials, with a thatched roof that is hipped at the left end and gabled at the right. A brick chimney is located on the right gable. The house has a single-depth plan, and features a front lean-to with a corrugated asbestos roof. The two-storey facade has two windows. A 20th-century door is located in the lean-to, providing access. On the ground floor, a 20th-century casement window is set within an enlarged opening to the right. The first floor has a small four-pane casement window to the left and a two-light casement window with four panes per light to the right. The interior was not inspected.
