House To South Of Fisherman'S Cottage

This house, located south of Fisherman's Cottage in Robin Hood's Bay, dates from around 1700 and has undergone some alterations. It is constructed from very lightly tooled, unevenly-coursed sandstone, with the lower courses being thicker. The basement is rendered, and the roof is a renewed pantile with stone kneelers and a ridge stack.

The building has three storeys and a basement, featuring two bays on the gable end facing the road. The windows include a modern basement window, a 12-pane sash on the ground floor, a very small 4-pane sash in a chamfered opening on the first floor, and two 6-pane sashes in lengthened older openings on the second floor. There is a stack at the peak of the gable.

The entrance front is on the left return, which has a 6-panel door set in a doorcase with reeded pilasters and an open-pedimented hood. Above the door is a shaped stone lintel with the initials E and AS. To the right of the door, there is a wide 28-pane fixed light with a small off-centre opening section. On the first floor, the right side features a casement window set in an old chamfered opening, while the left side has a 16-pane sash and a 12-pane sash above. There are also traces of earlier, shorter openings.
