Description
The Laurels is a late 18th or early 19th century building of two storeys, rendered with a stucco finish. It has a steep-pitched, hipped roof covered in old tiles. The front elevation features three windows on each floor. The upper floor windows are flush architrave framed sash windows with 19th-century glazing; one is a two-light casement, the others are sash windows. The ground floor has a similar sash window, a paired sash window, and a 19th-century door positioned off-centre. The door is panelled, with three sections, two of which are glazed with cusped heads. A plain, open porch with chamfered supports stands before the door. A lean-to addition is on the right-hand side, containing a single sash window and a three-light casement to the east end.
