Description
This is a house, likely dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. The front is rendered. It has a hipped slate roof and a large rendered chimney with a tapered cap on the rear wall. The house is three storeys high and two windows wide. On the ground floor, there is a doorway at each end and a window in the centre. The doorway on the left has four moulded panels above and three flush panels below, with a two-paned fanlight above the door. The doorway on the right has two moulded panels above and two flush panels below, with side-lights, each featuring a flush panel below. The central ground-floor window has a 20th-century casement within a 19th-century shaped surround. Upper-floor windows are 2-paned sashes in raised surrounds, with those on the second storey matching the style of the ground-floor window. A moulded cornice runs above the ground storey, and a sill band is present on the third storey. Raised quoins are visible to the left of both upper storeys. The eaves have a bracketed cornice, likely dating from the late 18th or early 19th century.
