Description

Nos 3 to 6 on Finger Lane are a pair of 17th-century houses, built in 1625. They are two storeys high and feature four window bays, with one window in each bay. The buildings have a slate gabled roof and are constructed from stone rubble. The sash windows retain their glazing bars and have slightly segmental heads. The doorways are also segmental headed, with ledged doors set in frames. These houses, along with Nos 1, 2, the Gospel Hall, and the garden wall to Pineska on Acreman Street, form a group.
