Description
Holly Bank is a house dated 1789, which was renovated in the 20th century. It is built of coursed squared ironstone and has a plain-tile roof that replaced the original thatch, with brick stacks at each end. The house has a two-unit plan, is two storeys high with an attic, and features a two-window range. The central entrance has a part-glazed 20th-century door with an overlight, set within a 20th-century gabled timber porch. There are three-light leaded casement windows on both the ground and first floors, which have old catches and flat-arched heads. Above the door is a datestone inscribed with P/RB/1789, and there is a Norwich insurance plaque below it. The building has a plinth, roof dormers, and stone-coped gables with kneelers, as well as a wing at the rear left. Inside, the house features stop-chamfered spine beams, an open fireplace with a chamfered bressumer, and stone-flagged floors.
