Description
Silver Street House is a detached house, originally dating from the 17th century, with alterations and additions from the 19th century. The exterior is colourwashed render, with wooden lintels and a pantile roof. The house has a U-shaped plan, with the north side of the house facing the street. The left-hand, projecting wing has 20th-century two-light casement windows on the ground floor and two early 17th-century oak ovolo-moulded mullion windows, of two and three lights, on the upper floor. A 12-pane sash window is located on the ground floor of the central range, and a 9-pane 19th-century fixed window sits above. The right-hand wing has 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor and a single flush roof light. A 19th-century gabled porch, with lattice jambs, is set to one side of the central range, and features a 19th-century door with four glazed panels. There are three rendered ridge stacks. 20th-century windows are present in the gable ends of the wings. Inside, the right-hand wing features large chamfered beams and a 17th-century roof structure; similar features are present in the left-hand wing.
