Description
This is a late 17th-century house on the west side of High Street, Welford. The building is brick, with some decorative diapering, and has a slate roof. Originally designed with a two-unit plan, it is two storeys high with an attic. The front elevation features a two-window range, with 20th-century casement windows set within the original openings, which have flat arches on the first floor. A 20th-century door is positioned to the right, also under a shallow brick arch. A raised plinth sits below the window sills, and a raised brick string course runs between the floors. Ashlar gable parapets and brick stacks are located at the ends of the building. There is some evidence of ground floor window replacement. The rear of the property is similar, with 19th-century additions. The interior was not inspected, but a room to the left of the entrance contains remains of an open fireplace.
