Description

Voe House, located in Walls Village, is an 18th-century, two-storey, three-bay symmetrical double house. It was once part of an 11-bay terrace that included a single-storey and attic three-bay shop attached to the north gable, and a now-ruinous two-storey three-bay house to the south gable, which had a single-storey two-bay flat-roofed byre connected to it.

The double house features a symmetrical east elevation with a pair of vertically-boarded timber doors with fanlights at the centre on the ground floor, flanked by windows in the outer bays. The first floor has regular fenestration. The shop has an entrance door in the central bay, with margined four-pane fixed lights in the flanking bays, and a small square four-pane window to the right in the gable head.

The cottage and byre have three widely spaced bays on the east elevation, although the upper floor is mostly missing. There is a door and window in the left and right bays of the byre, respectively. The double cottage has nine, twelve, and sixteen-pane timber sash and case windows. Both the double cottage and the shop have purple-grey slate roofs with harled skew copes, which are wider on the south gable. The gable head stacks are made of harled rubble with stone copes and circular cans.
