The Gables And Attached Outbuilding

The Gables and attached outbuilding is a house and former shop located on Low Street in Nunnington. It dates from the mid to late 18th century and was partly raised and altered in the 19th century. The building is constructed from coursed sandy limestone rubble and features a pantile roof with brick stacks.

The main part of the house is two stories high with a one-window front, flanked by lower two-story wings, each also with one window. To the far right is a one-story outbuilding with one window. The central section has a four-panel door to the right of a two-light, six-pane horizontal-sliding sash window. Above this is a flat-topped half-dormer with a twelve-pane sash window. The left wing features two-light, twelve-pane horizontal-sliding sashes on both floors, each with stone sills. The former shop in the right wing has a four-panel door to the right of a two-light, sixteen-pane horizontal-sliding sash window, with a flat-topped half-dormer above that also contains a twelve-pane sash. The outbuilding has a two-light, sixteen-pane horizontal-sliding sash window. All ground-floor openings have painted timber lintels. There are left end stacks for the central part and the left wing, and a right end stack for the right wing.
