Description
The Old Bakery is an early 19th-century house with an attached 19th-century bakehouse. The house is constructed of diaper brick, with a tiled roof. It is two storeys high and originally comprised three bays. A section was extended circa 1970, projecting forward to the right, featuring a further bay. To the left is a five-bay bakehouse, built of brick laced with stone and with a tiled roof. The entrance to the house is now within the bakehouse, accessed via a boarded door with two lights, sheltered by a bracketed canopy. The house has twenty-four-pane sashes in bays one and three, a 12- and 20-pane sash in the centre bay, all with gauged brick lintels. Chimneys are positioned as gable stacks. The bakehouse has eight-pane top-hung windows set within bullnosed reveals. A roof vent is located over the left end of the bakehouse. The interior is believed to contain fragments of an earlier building.
