Description
Nos. 8 and 10 are two dwellings housed in a building dating from the early to mid-18th century, with a datestone marked ABM/1859. The structure is built of squared coursed and regular coursed limestone with lias dressings, topped with plain-tile roofs from the 19th and 20th centuries. It has an irregular U-shaped plan and stands two storeys high with an attic.
The garden front features a four-window range of 18th-century sash windows with glazing bars, set beneath shallow-arch heads with keyblocks. A central ashlar porch has an arch head opening flanked by Corinthian pilasters and is said to have originated from Holdenby Palace. To the right, there is a 19th-century cross-wing with a Dutch-style gable and a canted stone oriel window on the first floor. Below this window is a door with an attached window, which has stone mullions and flanking twisted pilasters, likely re-set. The building also has ashlar gable parapets and kneelers, along with a pair of 19th-century hipped roof dormers featuring glazed sides. Brick and ashlar stacks are located at the ridge and ends.
To the left, there is a 20th-century single-storey extension. The left elevation abuts the road and includes a 19th-century cross-wing with a datestone, and two leaded casements under wood lintels in the early 18th-century wing. The central 19th-century door has a re-set plaque above it displaying the arms of Queen Anne. The rear elevation to the right has three 19th-century sash windows. The interior has not been inspected. A 19th-century wall attached to the right of the garden front features an arch head gateway. The 20th-century extension to the left of the garden front is not of special architectural interest.
