Description
House. Built in the 17th century, with changes made in the late 18th century and a later addition constructed in the late 19th century. The house is timber-framed with a stuccoed front facing the street, appearing in two different planes with a break between the second and third windows from the right. The front features rusticated quoins and a coped parapet above the roofline, which is covered in plain tiles. There are three hipped dormers and two chimney stacks to the rear. The house is two storeys high with attics, and has a regular five-window front, with the windows spaced wider either side of the centre. The windows are sash windows without glazing bars. A central door has rusticated reveals and pilasters that support a cornice hood. Spearhead railings run along the front. To the west is a late 19th-century block constructed of knapped flint with red brick and stone dressings. This block has a plain tiled roof with two cross-gables. It is two storeys high with attics, and has irregular window placement, with two windows in the gables, three on the first floor and three on the ground floor. The windows are sash windows with various glazing bar patterns. The garden front is symmetrical and made of dressed stone.
