GV II

Formerly known as: Black House, Penrose, Ingle Nook and Black Cottage MILTON STREET Higher Brixham. House, now guest house. Probably C17/C18, with superficial alterations of 1913. Solid rendered walls. Slated roof, hipped at the front. 2 storeys with garret. 2 windows wide, the ground-storey fenestration adjusted to fit in a doorway at right-hand end. Late C20 plank door. Late C20 wood-framed windows, those in upper storey with glazing bars. Late C19 dormer with pent-roof; 3-light wood casement with 2 panes per light. Cement window-quoins and quoins probably of 1913, as at No.19 (qv). This appears to have formed the right cross-wing of No.19 in 1913, when it was given the same cement exterior detail. Structurally, however, it seems to be entirely separate. INTERIOR not inspected.
