Description
This is a late 17th-century house in a row on the east side of Minchinhampton High Street. The house is built of random rubble limestone, formerly rendered, with an ashlar chimney and a stone slate roof. It is two storeys high with an attic. The front elevation has a mixed and altered pattern of windows. A bow window with glazing bars occupies the ground floor, alongside a four-panel door to the left, both set beneath a long timber lintel. A single upper floor casement window and a smaller casement window in the gable are also present, both with timber lintels. The parapet gable features a later urn finial, complemented by similar finials on the side parapets. The interior of the building has not been inspected.
