GARGRAVE SOUTH STREET Nos 17, 18 and 25, High Street

GV II

House probably later C17. Rubble with stone slate roof. Two tall storeys, and large attic lit from full height porch at front and large rear gable. The portion fronting on South Street differs in surface treatment, the walls of No 17 being slobbered, but as one build the house appears to have been of three bays with the porch forming an entry into the right hand end. Double chamfered stone mullion windows, under continuous hoodmoulds in the first two bays, detached hoodmoulds to the porch bay. The porch has a chamfered doorway slightly off centre, a 3-light window above, and a stepped 3-light in the gable, which is coped with heavy moulded kneelers. In the first two bays the windows are of 4 lights, and 6 with a king mullion, below; and of 4 and 4 lights above. Later chamfered doorway inserted between the bays. Both doors are unglazed. Two moulded stacks, one on the left gable and one on the ridge. The rear is formed of a massive gable with three bays of windows to two storeys, two sashed with glazing bars. There is a 3-light double chamfered stone mullion window with hoodmould in the gable, and a chimney on it. Interior not inspected but may be of interest.
