Plum Cottage With Front Wall Railings And Gate

This is a late 18th-century house located on the Green in Green Hamerton. It is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a pantile roof featuring two lower courses of stone slates. The house stands on a low cobbled foundation and has a slightly projecting brick plinth cut by brickwork forming bow windows. The central entrance has a four-panel door with a plain doorcase and cornice. Flanking the door are segmental bow windows with sash windows featuring glazing bars to the central panel. The first floor has three flat-arched, 16-pane sash windows within flush wood architraves and stone sills. A string course runs along the first-floor level, and the eaves have a dentil cornice. A brick garden wall, approximately 40 centimetres high, has a stone capping and is topped by iron railings featuring flowered heads and plain rails. An iron gate with bars, dog bars, and flowered heads is set within piers topped with ball finials.
