Description

This is a house, likely dating to the 17th or early 18th century. It is built with roughcast rendering and a slate roof. The house is situated on a hillside and comprises two bays. The northern bay is single-storied, while the southern bay has two stories. The north gable end features an entrance and a casement window, both sheltered by a dripstone; the original entrance was larger doors. The east elevation has a variety of window styles, including a small stair window in the centre. The south gable end has casement windows on both the ground and first floors, also with dripstones, and an entrance. The west elevation has casement windows in the second bay, with a small window to the right. A squat stack is located in the centre of the house, running perpendicular to the main axis. Inside, there are chamfered beams and a recess that once housed a spice cupboard. The northern bay retains a cruck truss roof structure, whereas the southern bay features a collar truss with a kingpost.
