17, The Forty

This is a house dating to around 1830. It is constructed of roughly-layered limestone rubble with a roof covered in imitation stone slates. The house has two storeys and two bays. A door is situated in a left-side extension; the original central door has been converted into a window. The windows are timber casements from the 20th century. The lintels above the windows are timber and chamfered, with the ground floor lintel on the left side having been extended to cover the former doorway. Brick gable stacks are present. Inside, the house has been combined into a single room. The fireplace incorporates a doorway with a pointed arch (ogee headed) that was originally removed from the first floor.
