GV II

House, sub-divided in 1950s-60s, now one again. C17 and C18. Ham stone ashlar, plain clay tile roof between stepped coped gables; brick end and intermediate chimney stacks. Two storeys with attic, 4 bays. Hollow-chamfer mullioned windows in recesses, with separate labels; 3-light upper bay 1, 2-light upper bay 2, and 4-light upper bays 3 and 4; lower bays 1 and 3 have pairs margined French windows under wooden blind boxes; to lower bay 2 a C19 part-glazed door in plain opening, under moulded flat stone hood on brackets; a further door to lower bay 4 masked by vegetation: high under eaves a 1783 datestone, but this could refer to a re-roofing. On east gable a circular attic window with external ferramenta. An extension to the rear could represent another house at one time. Interior not seen, but reported are tie-beam trusses, probably late C18. About 4 metres south of house, set on low stone wall, wrot iron railings with arrowheads to middle and top rails, with cast acanthus finials to arch braced standards, matching gate opposite the bay 4 door, but a mid C20 gate opposite bay 2; brick and stone return walls to house, all contributing to the setting of the house and the streetscene generally. (VAG Report, unpublished SRO, February 1977).
