Description
This is a 17th-century house situated in a row on West Looe Hill, West Looe, with later alterations. The house is constructed of painted rubble walls and has a steep asbestos slate roof with three dormers that break the eaves. There are truncated rear lateral stacks. The building has a single-depth plan, incorporating a hall bay to the rear right, and later lean-to additions to the rear left and on the left side.
The exterior is two storeys high with a three-window front. It likely retains its original window frames. A 16-pane casement window is present on the ground floor to the right. A similar 4-pane casement window was replicated in the 20th century on the first floor, centrally. Other windows are late 19th or 20th-century 4-pane horned sashes set within raised openings. The doorway is situated to the left of centre and features a late 19th-century latticed wooden porch with a bracketed gable hood, sheltering a 4-panel door with later-glazed top panels. A planked and studded door remains at the rear.
Inside, the hall to the left has original chamfered joists with ogee stops. A rear lateral fireplace with a chamfered lintel and oven is also present. The kitchen to the left has chamfered and stopped joists, along with a partly blocked fireplace. A through passage has an 18th-century muntin and plank partition and returns beside a straight-flight staircase to the right of the doorway. The staircase has a 19th-century balustrade, while sections of what appear to be original trusses are visible.
