Description

No. 4 Willow Vale is a building dating from around 1880, designed in the Jacobean-Gothic style. It is constructed of coursed rubble and features two storeys with attics, topped by two gables that have copings and finials. The façade includes three windows, which are two-light stone mullioned casements with transoms on the ground floor and the central window on the first floor. The entrance is centrally located and is highlighted by an ornate gabled stone porch with a trefoiled outer opening and pinnacles. The door opening is elliptical arched and features a keystone, leading to a panelled half-glazed door. This building is included for its group value.
