Description

A small two-storey gabled house with chimney on the right-hand gable, built in rubble stonework partly rough rendered, limewashed and whitened. The main entrance faces west towards the village street.

The west elevation is two windows wide. It features a rectangular ledged timber door with a small rectangular fanlight of patterned glass below a slightly recessed door head, positioned to the left, with a rectangular window to the right on the ground floor. The first floor has two rectangular windows. All windows are timber sliding sash, vertically hung with 2 over 2 panes, fitted with horns and painted white, with exposed sash boxes painted green. The window reveals are whitened and the windows sit on projecting concrete cills painted green. The doorway woodwork is painted green and fitted with a brass door handle and latch of traditional pattern, a plain brass letterbox, and a concrete doorstep. The roof is laid with Bangor Blue slates in regular courses, flush with the gables, with dark-toned ridge tiles. A cast iron gutter runs across the elevation. A projecting eaves course is whitened. The single chimney is constructed of firebrick with a projecting string course, topped with a small modern red terracotta pot with cowl and a small TV aerial attached. To the right of the house extends a low dry stone wall of basalt and limestone rubble.

The north elevation is formed by the north gable, with the same walling treatment but featuring a rounded corner to the left. A Local Authority street sign is attached to this elevation. A low rubble stone boundary wall extends to the left, whitened, with unwhitened basalt rock and boulder copings.

The east elevation is two-storey with the same roof and walling as the entrance front. A cast iron gutter with a circular downpipe runs down the left side. The ground floor has a rectangular doorway to the left and a rectangular window to the right. The first floor has two rectangular windows, except the one to the right which is a rectangular fixed light with a top-hung vent containing translucent glass. The doorway is a rectangular flush timber door with a translucent glazed panel, painted green. The windows are sashed and painted as on the entrance front. Projecting from the facade to the left of the door is a broad flat-topped stone. A circular PVC soil pipe and black-painted electrical trunking are positioned to the right.

The south elevation is formed by the south gable with the same walling but incorporating whitened brickwork in two areas below the chimney: one extending from ground level directly below, and one raking up from first floor level to the right. The chimney sits on the apex of the gable. A cast iron gutter runs across the whole gable, returned from front and rear elevations. Projecting from the left extremity of the gable is a short nib of whitened rubble wall just above first floor level, with a low dry stone wall of basalt and limestone rubble projecting forward from it.

The house stands on a corner site on the east side of the main village street, at the bottom of a run of listed houses on a sloping street, linked to them at the front by a low boundary wall. The north gable faces directly on to a side road. Outside the front door the main tarmacadam road runs without pavement. To the south is a small garden with a lawn separated from the house by a flower bed and path. To the rear is a tarmac yard surrounded by low hedges and containing small garden sheds. The boundary to the side road at the rear is formed by a low stone wall backed by hedging, containing a plain iron vehicular gate. The boundary to the south is formed by the gable of the adjacent house at number 8 and a low dry stone wall linked to the gable by a small wooden gate.

At the east end of the low stone wall stands a pair of single-storey pig-houses with low walls of basalt rubble, symmetrically planned with a small rectangular open doorway to each house within a small rectangular forecourt entered through a pair of rectangular openings which retain iron hinges for gates, now missing. One gate remains loose within the yard. The pig-house roofs are laid with Bangor Blue slates in regular courses with black ridge tiles, in poor condition with sagging to each ridge. The interiors are rubble-walled, partially whitened.
