Description
Nos 2 and 3 Sun Street are located on the south side and date from around 1700, with No 2 being a later extension. The buildings are constructed of rubble and feature a pantile roof, along with three brick chimneys. No 2 is three storeys high and has one mid-19th century window with freestone block surrounds, with a door to the left. No 3 is 2½ storeys tall and has a raking top dormer. It features two windows on the first floor, one a two-light and the other a three-light mullion type with ogee moulding and drips. On the ground floor, there is a similar three-light window and a pedimented doorcase, likely from the mid-19th century, as indicated by the block surrounds. Additionally, there are two slit windows on the ground floor.
