Description
Nos. 10 and 11 are two houses built around 1840, constructed from Ham Hill stone ashlar with a slate roof that is tarred on the left side (No. 10). They feature a double-depth plan and stand two storeys high with a three-bay front and a four-window range on the first floor. The entrance consists of paired 20th-century doors with a reeded lintel and Gothic-style interlaced glazing bars above. This is flanked by paired semicircular-arched sashes with margin panes. No. 10 has 8/8-pane sashes, while No. 11 has plastic windows that were installed around 1990. All window openings have shallow segmental arches and keystones. The interiors have not been inspected, but it is noted that No. 11 has been completely altered.
The houses are complemented by elaborate attached cast-iron railings, likely from the Phoenix foundry in Chard. These railings are similar to those found at the Baptist Chapel in Chard and Summerlands in Brewery Lane, Ilminster. They feature alternating spearhead and palmette designs, trellised main supports, round-arched tops with anthemion insets, scroll patterns in the centers, and rectangular bases enclosing stylized flowers.
