The Chur

This is a house in a row, dating to the 16th and 17th centuries. It is constructed of large squared coursed limestone blocks with a slate roof. The building is complex, with a nearly symmetrical appearance to the left, but a visible straight joint in the masonry above the right-hand window indicates a later addition or alteration. A further straight joint is visible to the right of the doorway, which is positioned to the extreme right. The house is two storeys high. On the ground floor, the windows consist of two 3-light hollow chamfer mullioned casements, a central single-light window (likely replacing a former doorway), all with 20th-century leading. Above the left-hand window is a 3-light hollow chamfer mullioned casement with a stopped drip. Above the central doorway is a 2-light plain chamfer mullion casement. The right-hand side of the facade features an early plank door with nail-heads set within a pointed chamfered surround. To the left of the building is a tall stone stack, which may have been an external gable stack; this is evidenced by the straight joint to the front facade, left. A short section of ashlar is stitched to the adjoining property, far to the left.
