Description

Two houses, originally a single property, likely dating from the 16th or early 17th century. The houses are timber-framed, now cased and rendered. They have a pantile roof with a common rafter structure and collars. The building is two storeys high. A carriageway is located to the left. The doors and windows are 20th-century replacements. The interior of number 26 retains a significant amount of exposed timber, including a section of close studding and an arched brace.
