Description

Two houses, numbers 8 and 9, stand on the east side of Pound Pill. Number 8 dates to the late 17th century, while number 9 likely originated as a barn or stable in the late 18th century, subsequently converted into a house. Both are built of rubble stone with stone tiled roofs.

Number 8 is a two-and-a-half-storey, double-fronted house with coped north gables and west end stacks. It features two dormer gables, each containing a two-light mullion window with a hood mould. The main floors have three-light windows on each side, all recessed within a cyma moulding, with leaded fixed lights and sash opening lights. A dripcourse runs over the ground floor. The central entrance has a six-panel door set within a moulded Tudor-arched surround topped with ornate scroll brackets and a hood. A single two-light, flush, cyma-moulded window to the right is structurally part of number 9. A gabled rear wing is also present. To the left, a two-storey addition features plain tiles, casement windows and a stable door.

Number 9 is a taller, two-storey building with coped gables, north end and rear wall stacks. It has two two-light, flush, cyma-moulded windows on the first floor and one to the ground floor to the right. A 20th-century porch shelters the door on the right-hand side. The end wall displays a Tudor-arched upper opening, likely originally a loading door.
